Curtin Springs Days 103 - 105

29th - 31st March

The next three days we spent exploring sights along the Mereenie Loop, Gosse Bluff (a massive meteorite impact crater), Kings Canyon, Uluru and The Olgas.

Nothing could quite prepare us for the magnitude of the monolith as we caught our first glimpse driving through the burnt red sand dunes. Nor how mesmerised we would we be at the continual changing of colour of the rock throughout the course of the day. We were also amazed at viewing the rock from all aspects, and how different it is on all sides. We even got a special treat at sunset when a full moon popped up behind Ayers Rock.
