Erldunda Revisted




19th June – Friday

We are now back in contact, so please start reading from the 16th June.

We left Kings Canyon this morning, not as bright and early as expected. We met a couple from Melbourne when we arrived at Kings Canyon Resort and they have the most beautiful, LARGE, Bernese mountain dog. The dog is an absolute sook and one of the couple has to stay with it at al times! Anyway, by the time we talked, etc, it was nearly 9.30am before we were on the road. Cat was still tuckered out from his long climb and walk yesterday, so spent all the morning asleep on the bed.

The countryside was the same as on the way in to Yulara and Kings Canyon, although we did see many more camels than last Saturday. We drove through a herd of 30-40, either side of the road.

We arrived at Erldunda, and mobile phone coverage, shortly before 1.00pm. We filled up with diesel immediately, just in case they ran out again. Tomorrow, we will be in Alice Springs for eight nights.

Another beautiful day, although a bit of a chilly breeze. It is probably only about 16 degrees today, a bit cooler than the 18 degrees of the last few days. Nights are extremely cold, though.




Have included some more photos from Kings Canyon.

Glad Cat is alive. We were getting worried about him.
