Alice Springs, Ayres Rock, Olgas, Kings Canyon

Leaving Adelaide because there really wasnt anything to do there we took a bus up towards Ayres Rock, on the way, the bus stopped in Cooper Pedy, where we stayed in an underground hostel, this was really cool and it was actually cool underground. There are tons of opal mines in the area and they turned the unused ones into places for people to live, really interesting!!

After spending the night in Alice Springs, Pierre, Milly, Hanna and myslef hired a car and drove to Ayres Rock (Ulura) and the Olgas, It was really nice when we got it, haha it normally was $25 to get into the park, but me thinking of ways to save money jumped in the boot of the car to save the money, budget traveling, so yeah here is a pic of me in the tiny boot of the car, funny thing is that the tallest person was in the smallest part of the car, but it was worth it as you can see by the pics!! Haha, the reason for the finger was cause it was really, really hot and took them some time to get me out of the boot because we didn't want to get caught by the guard, haha, oops!!

Look at the two bombers walking up, Ayres Rock BOOM!!! haha thats what Pierre and I were saying when we did this, but there was logic behind it all, there were TONS of flies everywhere and the only way to get them off you face was to wear a net or something, and we decided to make our own nets, so yeah hence how the Bombers were walking around, haha really cool though, Im amazing I know!!
