F.P.T.: I went to the red centre

26/9-3/10 i went to central australia with my family of four people. My dad, my mum, my sister, and me.
we did many things. We liked it very much. I want to go again.

we took this tour: http://www.adventuretours.com.au/4-day-4wd-red-centre-tour-from-yulara/
i recommend it.
it was great.
After the tour i got sick, i vomited and diarrhea-ed. This is because of a dinner after the tour at a backpackers restaurant, but we still went to other places in alice springs.
then came home tired.
and just realised it was day light savings.

Experiences:
• going to central australia
• seeing aboriginal communities/culture
• ULURU - perspectives; kata juta - valley of the winds; kings canyon; palm valley; mcdonnell ranges,.. my bad forgot some names
• aussie outback mate
• kangaroo meat; emu; camel; random bush tucker
• tour car getting bogged(i've never been in a bogged car.)
• wearing a fly net lol
• sleeping under the stars in a swag - seeing a total of 7 shooting stars lol
• running out of camera space for a period of time
• painful vomiting during the night, with diarrhea intervals
• sleeping all day during a holiday! lol never done that before either.
• flying tiger airlines first time.

oh btw if you don't want to take a tour, i asked the taxi, it costs about 1000 from alice for him to take you. i lol

here we stayed

theres actually shops i recognise!, there was kfc, maccas woolworths coles kmart too lol.

the bin intrigued me, pretty cool. an indigenous australian actually approached me to get me to buy a painting off him for 25 bucks it was like A3 size. i was like sorry mate got no money, he instantly mark downs to 15 lol sorry buddy.

ate this first night; kangaroo meat. quite nice.
that night slept early to wake up atlike 5 to get picked up by the tour people

the 4wd we traveled in. or something similar. since this one was not roadworthy or something and they switched it for another

we're going to the rock!

killer smile lol - this was first stop - camel farm

yeh! - going on a rock hunt. stop #2
you know its funny coz lasseter is a person who perished in the outback on the search for gold. i just lol

road train. what a beast literally. it carries cattle , on this one there was one doing a shit, and it was just going on the road. unbelievably beast

petrol station sells this stuff lol well it was like semi bar/souvenir shop thing too i guess lol

oh the heavy contrast at stop #3. green grass, and like100 metres away

lol awesome outback quite lolers, i always thought we were in drought

outback predator - while we were collecting firewood

FIRST SIGHTING OF THE ROCK. like the rock, i was just thinking, its a rock like just a rock. lol

the park which we went to, dw the cost was in the tour lol

kata juta is a bunch of rocks - i can explain the geological creation of this and uluru, if want lol

yeh! my uber cool fly net

lovely rocky :D lol

rated R for rocky

i loled

valley of the winds - this could be the scene of a great action sequence lol

resting on one of the slopes of kata juta . perhaps i was staring in awe at the awesomeness

the chairs were really cool

good old outback toilet - its just a hole, this particularly toilet had like a line of 20 people. i think there was just a lot of people

sunsent at the big fella

dawn - woke up at like 400 that morning , its funny coz i sometimes game till 4 . feels strange lol

sunrise on the ayers rock - didn't get to climb it btw, winds were too big, they dont' encourage the climb though, because the abos don't want us to, its like culturally bad and stuff, and apparently dangeours like 39 people have died since the inception of the "path" (just a row of steal chains) in 1960. the last case was some guy last year who instinctively stepped out for a split second because his hat was blown off, gg noob lol

perspective - there are so many more lol

im sitting on it!!! - i will photoshop it later

another sitting position!

this only sort of works - theres a sort of groove where my foot is covering. lol

but uluru is not just flat!

during my battle in 19 B.C with a spirit dog i slashed the rock with my super dragon sword and created this gash lol.
it first reminded me of a bit monster which i have seen in cartoons.. or like muk the pokemon lol

waterholes exist inside uluru! or rather just an indent sort of thing. but yes! its not just a big round rock

like thesebrain like patterns which were everywhere

not round at all!

long road that looked cool (we did travel on it lol)

(bogged)

lol i helpd like push and stuff..

a REAL lizard inside my tent on night 2 - it seems to have lost its tail lo

so i decided to sleep in a swag - there were dingoes around too, but they don't bite you, just steal your thongs if your not careful lol

kings canyon - like omg. it was hottish that day.

spontaneous pose, i didnt' have time to prepare

the really cool ghost gum tree - which has a chalk like material that substitues as bark, which has an SPF of about 4+ protecting slgihtly from sun. Also its extremely cool ability(like all eucalypts) is to perform something pronounced tree-age(arj) maybe triage? anyway, it allows the treee to kill off branches when lacking water so the rest of the tree can survive. PRETTY COOL.

kings canyon had many better views, but this is some rock that split of 60 years ago. lol

the "central australian native junk tree"
like really random, out in the middle of the uber long dirt road. random tree with junk.

wild horses!

and wild camels!

the lucky sighting of a rock wallaby, it was like hunting lol

we could've slept in these tents (night 3) but chose the swags

some crater of a meteorthat hit like 143 million years ago(realfact lol)

hermannsburg - aborginal town. not much to see.

palm valley

the meal that made me vomit like a bitch, shit like a retard, and get a fever like i was some sort of fire god. thus i slept it off lol like a sleeping beauty lol

sunrise on anzac hill (in alice)

pretty cool lol, something i probalbly wouldn't do if out with friends lol unelss i had an overly long night

the town of alice springs lol

went here when i was better lol

big family!

lol i cheated, its actually taken through glass

this is.. either a black kite, or a falcon, or some other bird that i forgot the name of.

the blue bird made me have orgasmic behaviour when i saw it. so cool. and so hard to get a photo of, but it is like so cool. i took this when the feeder came in, and it was still really agile. apparently it only becomes blue during mating season (only the male) so must be testosterone levels or somehting lol.

camel pie, encrusted barrumundi, emu, kangaroo (left to right) was pretty tank, emu tasted like smoked beef, but this kangaroo was really dry. and this meal made me feel bit queasy again lols
