Two Strange Mornings...

Ok, so when we left the hotel in Parramatta, we took a back road tour on the shuttle, since our driver had already been stopped 2 times by the police because his tail-light on the luggage tralior was burned out... So he picked us up 15 minutes late, then spent another 15 minutes trying to see if he could fix the tail-light. Then we were off with tail-light not functioning.

He took us through all these neighborhoods with circles and spped bumps... Then Sissy laughed and we were told it wasn't a laughing matter... All this before 5 AM...

Finally at the airport.. but it's the wrong one, we were in the international terminal.. hummm..Finally over to the domestic terminal and phew we made the plane.

Second strange morning in Uluru... Jenny mentioned earlier that we were sharing the room with an Asian couple. We asked the night before if they were leaving early also, since we were going on a sunrise tour. They said, yes, so I, being the light sleeper that I am, heard them get up at 2:40 am... and they came back about an hour later.. Hummm.. late night snuggle i n the desert??

Then our alarm went off at 4:20 am, and the couple were still sleeping, luckily the rest of the group had a room to theirselves, and all my stuff was packed, Jenny and I by the light of an indiglo clock evacuted the room quickly and as quietly as possible.. I kind of felt like I was doing a covert operation.

Then we were off to the Kata Tjuta for sunrise. Which was Awesome, then out 2 plus hour hike through the Valley of the Winds!!
