Uluru - Ayers Rock

The Ayers Rock or Uluru was very touristic, but also very impressive. Unfortunately the sunrise wasn't to impressive, as the weather was really bad. All those people were standing there and waited that the clouds might disappear...

Is there any connection between Franconian and Aboriginal language??

The Uluru at sunset

Our 10km walk around the Uluru was great. Such a huge variety of rock formations!








On the road...

Massive road train...

Australians like to transport everything, even houses!

Jo increases the tire pressure again after a 4WD Track from the Bungle Bungle NP.

Kings Canyon


90 km to get to Kronach? No, Kings Canyon...

Kings Canyon was very touristic and not very spectacular, as we didn't do the long walk on the edge of the Canyon.

Bush fire

On our way to Kings Canyon we saw this bush fire next to the road... Amazing!

West Mc Donnel Ranges

On of the many gorges in the West Mc Donnel Ranges.

The Ochre Pit. Aboriginal people cut out ochre for their rock paintings.


On of the most beautiful hiking tours: the 7km walk through the West Mc Donnel Ranges





On the road

On the way to Uluru we saw the most expensive fuel prices ever!

The two Aliens Conny and Jo at the Ufo Roadhouse

Beautiful sunset in the bush

The Pebbles and Devil Marbles

It was early in the morning...

...when we got up and watched the sunrise at the Pebbles.

Eva tries to tidy up the Devil Marbles.




On our way to Uluru we stopped at the Daly Waters Pub, which was really special.


Apparently there are hot nights in this pub...

A nice atmosphere in the "beer garden"

Jo had his second breakfast...yummy!

The Bavarians are everywhere!
