Australia - 2005-04-19 - 2 - Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park - Ayers Rock (Uluru) Sunset
After doing the rock climb we headed back to the information center to
chill out in the AC & wait for sunset. We played some chess & charged
our electrical equipment, plus did some other "work". Once it got time
we headed to the sunset viewing area. What transpired over the next hour
was really cool. The rock changes colors numerous times as the sun sets.
Below they are shown in order. This sunset was much better that the one
at the Olgas the night before where not much happened. After the sunset
was done we headed to Curtin Springs, which was just outside of Yulara.
We had seen on the way in that there was free un-powered camping there,
with showers & toilets. It was really nice considering the price. Adrian
cooked supper while I got the truck ready for sleeping. We ate supper
then gazed at the stars while listening to music on the laptop. We also
saw some asteroids (aka shooting stars), which was superb. It was a chilled
out ending to a relaxed day. We didn't drive much & didn't have to rush
from place to place, which was cool.
