Around midday we walked around Uluru! It’s big! In some places you can’t take photos because it is sacred land to the aboriginals and it is disrespectful. The name of the traditional owners of Uluru is Anangu. When it’s not windy like it was today you can climb Uluru but the Anangu don’t like it because it’s not what they used too do. At one place around the rock there was a cave sort of thing. It was the kitchen that the woman would crush up the nuts and things in. You could see smooth places where they must of done it most of the time. It was about 10 kilometers around.
Uluru is a Monolithic rock which means its one large rock with no joins. It’s made of arkose which is a course grained sandstone with lots of the mineral called feldspar. For dinner we had a meal outside under the stars near Uluru. We learnt about the stars and they had telescopes that we could see the moon and Saturn through!

I am incredibly jealous. I have always wanted to walk around Uluru – I am told it is very beautiful.
Hi, everyone. Lucky you being at Uluru! I bet the stars are magnificent and we hope you had a magnificent sunset. It’s certainly a very special place.
Are there lots of other kids there? possibly not because school holidays haven’t started yet.
I hope as you travel north that your days are getting warmer.
School and Elphinstone and Pud and the Melbourne office must seem a mighty long way away!
we think of you lots and wish you could whip in for dinner tomorrow night, tara and Tess! xx
