Alice Springs

Saa er jeg ankommet til Singapore, hvor jeg allerede har vaeret i 4 dage, men eftersom jeg stadig ikke har faaet fortalt om min tur til "the Outback", saa faar I lige den forst.
Mandag i sidste uge tog jeg paa en 3 dags campingtur ud i den australske odemark for at se Ayer's Rock, King's Canyon og the Olgas. Og naar jeg siger camping, saa mener jeg virkelig camping!! Vi sov under den aabne himmel uden telte, og den forste nat havde vi heller ikke hverken bad eller toilet! Selvom det ikke er noget jeg nodvendigvis onsker at gentage lige forelobig, saa maa jeg indromme, at det var en oplevelse! Den forste nar sov vi midt ude paa en mark uden elektrisitet, og jeg har aldrig set saa mange stjerner i mit liv. Det var virkelig flot!
Vi stod tidligt op hver dag og korte ud til de forskellige ting, hvor vi saa vandrede rundt med guiden, som fortalte os om the Aboriginals og deres historie undervejs. Det lyder jo meget stille og roligt, men varmen (42+ grader) og fluerne gjorde det betydeligt svaerere! Den 3 dag maatte jeg endelig bryde sammen og investere i et fluenet til at daekke mit ansigt! Udover at vandre saa vi ogsaa baade solnedgangen og solopgangen over Ayer's Rock, som er virkelig flot, fordi man ser den skifte farve. King's Canyon og the Olgas var ogsaa virkelig flotte.
Paa turen tilbage stoppede vi paa en kamelfarm, hvor jeg var ude at ride paa kamel. DEt var bare en kort tur, men det var virkelig sjovt! Specielt da manden lige pludselig fik kamelen til at lobe!
Vi var 12 mennesker plus en guide i min gruppe, og naar vi ikke vandrede flere kilometer hver dag i den stegende hede, saa hyggede vi os rigtig godt:-)
Onsdag aften var jeg ude at spise med gruppen, jeg havde vaeret afsted med, og torsdag hoppede jeg paa et fly tilbage til Sydney. Jeg naaede ikke saa meget andet i Sydney end at spise, vaske toj, og sove for jeg tidligt naeste morgen floj til Singapore.

I made it to Singapore, and although I have already been here 4 days I still haven't told you about my last time in Australia and my trip to the Outback, so that is what I'm going to start out with.
Last Monday I went on a 3 day camping trip to the Australian outback to see Ayer's Rock, King's Canyon, and the Olgas. And when I say camping I mean CAMPING! We slept outside without any tents, and the first night we didn't even have toilets and showers! Even though I don't really want to do that again any time soon, it was an experience! The first night we didn't have electricity either, and I have never seen that many stars in my life! It was amazing! We got up really early every day, and drove to the differents things, and then we hiked around while our guide told os about the land, the Aboriginal, and their history. I know that doesn't sound to bad, but the flies and the heat made it a lot worse! On the 3 day I finally had to break down and get a fly net to cover my face (by that time most of the others had already gotten one!). Besides hiking we also saw both the sunrise and sunset over Ayer's Rock, whick was beautiful because you see the rock changing colours. King's Canyon and the Olgas were really cool as well.
On the way back we stopped at a camelfarm, and I got to ride a camel. It was only a short ride but it was a lot of fun. Especially when he made it run!
We were 12 people plus a guide in my group, and besides having to hike around in the heat, we had a lot of fun:-)
Wedensday night I went out to dinner with my group, and Thursday I got on a plane back to Sydney. I didn't really have time to do anything in Syndey but eat, do laundry, and sleep before I flew to Singapore early the next morning.
