Spectacular multi-day trip to Ayers Rock and the red rock formations of Kata Tjuta in the middle of the Australian Outback

Unfortunately, I have absolutely no knowledge of data in this blog. All I know is that we set off on 10.07.19 and arrived in Darwin on 29.07.19, hmmm timeless. Townsville to...

A special highlight is a visit to Uluru, the sacred mountain in the Red Centre. We had prepared for a hot desert but ended up needing both our rain jackets and sun hats.

Waking up two owls at quarter to five: only Uluru and Kata Tjuta can do that! This morning we had the sunrise on the program and left the hotel just after half past five (a few...

On these two days we had a really tight schedule and finally reached our destination. We made it to Uluru, also known as Ayers Rock.

Zum einen ist die Strecke länger als gedacht zum anderen die Straße aller Wahrscheinlichkeit nach überflutet und so entscheide ich mich für einen kurzen Flug von Broome nach...

The Uluru at sunset - the photo is not edited!!!

Sorry that we haven't heard from us for three days, but we didn't have any network. No network, no blog. But now we're starting again 4:30 a.m., the alarm clock wakes us up from...

Today we were already on our feet 20 minutes earlier than yesterday, as announced before, so around 4 o'clock, to be on time for the sunrise at Uluru. When we arrived at the...

Yesterday Ewel didn't tell us what time we had to get up, just that he would make sure we wake up on time. Then Harry Potter's theme song started blaring at 4:20 am and I had to...

The oasis at the foot of Ayers Rock

From Cairns, we decided to drive to the iconic Uluru or Ayers Rock, the landmark of Australia. For the Aboriginal people in this area, the Anangu, it is a sacred mountain. It...

27.03. After a really cool night, which has never happened before in Australia, unless it rained, we spent the very hot afternoon at the campground pool. In the afternoon, we...

If we are already in Australia, we thought we should also see Uluru. We decided to fly from Cairns to Alice Springs because we didn't want to drive over 2000 kilometers with a...

The wind was blowing strongly during the night. It is also windy in the morning and therefore 'a bit' cool. Samuel and Michi start the day with soccer training. After...
