Hey! So we've made it to New Zealand. Auckland seems nice from the 3 hours we've spent here. Anyway, how 'bout that last update from Oz, complete with pictures? Here y'all go...quoting Meghan McGuire on January 27, 2008:
Howdy from Central Australia! We're currently smack in the middle of the continent at Uluru/Ayers Rock. It's quite a change from the humid tropical temps we left in Cairns...temps here in Uluru are around 100 and extremely dry.
We had a great stay in Cairns, swam in their pretty public pool one day and then took a boat out to the Great Barrier Reef. It was a choppy day, so snorkeling wasn't great, but Ryan did a trial scuba dive and loved it!
Last night was our first in Uluru and we did a magnificent dining tour on a desert dune with sunset views of Uluru and later a star-filled sky. We shared a table with some very friendly Aussies and got some more info on cricket, which we are now sure is the most boring and pointless game ever invented. Resort living is really agreeing with us and we had a relaxing morning hanging out by the pool. We're headed out now for a quick hike around some other huge boulders in the Walpa Gorge at Kata Tjuta and then sunset at Uluru.
Lots of love,
M
