Jiffy (also jiff)

Well, the flag of Skåne, just a BONUS flag.

Wednesday 27 ^th of July 2016 and we leave Ayers Rock Resort and Emu Walk Apartments behind. I'm together with a couple from Spain and one couple form Australia. We were picking up twomore passengers but they were a NO SHOW and I was happy. More space for us in the van.

We had a French girl in cowboy hat as a Guide. I will see Kata Tjuta/ The Olgas today and tomorrow morning I will be on the SEIT Uluru Highlights to see the Ayers Rock/ Uluru.

Departing 06:15 and yet another morning and I have to wake up at 5 o'clock. But today it is Kata Tjuta and it is about 45 minutes to drive there. We will walk up the Walpa Gorge. And as no surprise they call the walk for:

Walpa Gorge Walk
2.6 km return/1 hour
This short, easy stroll leads up a rocky, gentle slope and then into a shady, moist gully.
It ends on a viewing platform between the towering domes.

So it promise to be an exciting afternoon. And I was happy when our Guide told us that we would be back at the hotel at 16:45. I was hungry as I had not have had anything to eat since 5 o'clock this very morning. So I was not only excited to go see the Kata Tjuta, I was also excited to come back to my room at Emu Walk Apartments

We're passing Kata Tjuta

We can see Uluru

Arriving to Kata Tjuta

We can see the end of the Walpa Gorge

I reach the platform at the end of the Walpa Gorge

I reach the end of the Walpa Gorge Walk and I take a few pictures from the platform before I start to walk back. My group is arriving when I'm leaving. I took off leaving them behind when wearrived to Kata Tjuta as I want to walk alone. I might get lucky to see some wild life.

I always check the passengers and I love to see old people and I hate to see a lot of young people. The young people are more like runningwhen we are supposed to walk. But “old timers” are also very dangerous. It can turn out that a bunch of 70 years old takes of like they have fire in their asses and what an embarrassment to be left behind by a bunch of “old timers” with canes and crutches. So to walk alone is preferable.

I saw some birds, I could hear more birds. But they were far away and I never got any pictures. And the birds is also an excellent excuse to walk alone. No need for me fellow passengers to see me huffin' and puffin' my way through the gorge.

I start to walk back to the parking lot

We were back at the van and we would make one more stop to get a picture of Kata Tjuta from a distance. Just a few minutes and I would be back to my room for some smoked salmon and diet drinks. Our Guide helped us with our selfies and we were soon on our way back to Ayers Rock Resort and smoked salmon and a shower.

It had been a very nice trip and our Guide had been very good and my fellow passengers were nice. So it had been an, no, yet an excellent day here in Australia. Well, I had to wake up at 5 o'clock, same tomorrow morning. Nothing I'm looking forward to.

My alarm is set to go off at 5 tomorrow morning and by clicking HERE you will soon find out how the adventure at the Ayers Rock turned out. I don't know about you, but I'm delirious by anticipation. Yet another day in the Australian wilderness.
