On 28th May the automatic transfer of my blog entries from my mobile to email to the blog stopped working. I’m working on the problem and hopefully will get it sorted out soon! Update 13th June 2008: I’ve not managed to sort out the problem so I’m manually posting the items now that I’ve got…
Tuesday 3rd June 2008 I was picked up at half seven this morning and dropped off in town with two others where we transferred onto the tour minibus driven by Will. The first leg of the journey was back along the M1 to Geelong, which the coach last night had travelled along in the opposite…
Monday 2nd June 2008 It was an early start to get the 5:43am Skylink bus to the railway station. We got to the station by six o’clock giving me ages before the train left at seven forty. I confused the lady serving in Choo Choo’s Cafe by buying a box of cornflakes and saying I…
Sunday 1st June 2008 I was up earlier today and the first order of the day was a load of washing to remove the Red Centre from my clothes. Once that was done, I’d had breakfast and made lunch I got back on the bike to cycle inland along the river Torrens. I managed to…
Saturday 31st May 2008 Having found a free wireless network in my dorm room I spent the morning lazing in bed on the internet. Once I was up I went to the IGA next door and picked up a pastie and quiche which I ate on the hostel balcony. I then hired a bike for…

Thursday 29th May 2008 I was up at nine, checked out of the hostel and left my ruck sack in storage. I walked down into town, meeting Agne and Peter (who were on the Rock Tour, but stayed at Annie’s Place) on the way. I got a bacon and egg sandwich with orange juice for…
Wednesday 28th May 2008 We were up at half five once again, though this time we had breakfast of porridge at the campsite. There was a herd of wild horses near us in the morning, which were obviously enjoying the green grass within the campground. After packing up we had a relatively short drive to…
Tuesday 27th May 2008 We were woken up at half five to be taken to the Uluru sunrise lookout. When we got there the sky was just starting to turn red. We set up for breakfast, ate a bit and then I walked up to the viewing point with a bowl of cornflakes and cup…
Monday 26th May 2008 I was up and picked up along with quite a few others from the hostel at six fifteen. Our first stop was at The Rock offices to pay our park entry fees and buy extra water bottles so that we have three litres for our longest, three hour walk. After that…
