Exciting Adventure - Day 12

Up at 4.15am to go and see the sunrise at Uluru (Ayers Rock) - saw it seemingly change colour to this deep red - and appearing to glow at one point as the light changed

Walked part of the 10km path that encircles the rock - seeing caves - some with olden aboriginal drawings in - and fissures in the rock caused by erosion and weathering - think I may see a face in the extra

Another phase of the Adventure completed - have now desserted the desert - am in Cairns - pronounced Cans by us locals - the tropical heart of Queensland - the rain is bouncing down - but it's warm
