We are embracing retirement, and making the most of it.

We knew we were never going to sit still for long, so whilst we are happy and healthy we will be out and about seeing the world………… full time.

We are out of the fast lane and taking the slow road ahead

The many sides of Ayers Rock-Uluru

We have just finished 4 incredible days visiting Ayers Rock (Uluru) and the Olgas (Kata Tjuta). The town of Yulara is about 17km from the Rock and is outside the National Park. It has an international resort vibe, and buzzing at the moment. Temperatures were comfortable low 30’s by mid afternoon, so early mornings and sunset were the best walking, climbing and viewing times.

The exciting close up on day one



We had the must do sunset view



Final burst of sunlight


Night 4 was clear sky


We saw the Rock from the base...a 10 km bike ride




The climb







One of many rests on steep climb

Then back down, easier 




Done! Very respectfully, and appreciated this final opportunity to interact with Ayers Rock as it closes to climbers in 4 days for good.
