The days here have been beautiful. Ice on the roof hatches every morning, freezing cold (our first day it was supposedly -3oC) but then it warms up to around 20oC. The skies are the bluest I have ever seen. Not a single cloud. Just bright blue against a backdrop of red rock. The nights are as clear as can be, but by 4pm the day starts to cool down really quickly. Out at Trephina Gorge, I can honestly say I have never seen a sky like it. The number of stars lighting up the night skies were amazing. Spent the night star/heaven gazing.

Had a picnic at Corroborree Rock. An amazing piece of rock, supposedly sacred to the aboriginal people, but noone really knows if anything ever took place here. Nice spot for a picnic and a stroll though. Lot of dirt roads and a couple of water crossings on the way, the bus was filthy, my car even worse but hey thats what its all about. Now its time to go back to Alice Springs and then head out west. Off to Ormiston Gorge, 135kms the other side of Alice Springs, supposedly the Jewel in the Crown of all the gorges here.
