Kings Canyon



That day was a pretty busy day it was our last full day with the camper van so we had to hurry up and see Kings Canyon and Uluru Rock!! We woke up around 6:30 am and heard dingo dogs barking far way, well I don't know if barking is the word but they sounded like wolfs! lol Anyways we got to Kings Canyon about 7 and just on time to follow a group that was going to climb Kings Canyon too. So free tour for us!!! woo hoo but I must say the guide wasn't that great he mostly just talked about trees and guided the group on where to go, but where to go was pretty much obvious, so we didn't follow them for to long and took our time enjoying the view and of course do what we do best... took tons of pictures!!!! (which I hope the slid show isn't too long but it was so pretty that we want to share with you our many pictures that are must sees, its tough pick the best ones!) Anyways the walk was obviously amazing to us and took us about 3 hours and it was about 6 km if I remember correctly. Once finished with the walk we still hadn't had breakfast so we were starving, so we parked the camper van a little after the parking lot, near a pic-nic area. And guess who we saw driving by us ... our Swiss friend, who were about to go on the walk we just did and had just gotten back from the Uluru Rock. And since you have to pay 25 dollars to go see the Rock (valid 3 days) they gaved us their pass since they still had a day left on their pass and they weren't gonna go back, and in exchange they just asked to send the passes pack to them as a souvenir! So that was really great for us because we didn't really want to have to pay 25 dollar per person for just an afternoon!

  1. Very nice pictures. I wish when you return home and have more time, will load all the pictures. You can use Kodak Gallery or something comparable. They allow unlimited storage. Only restriction is to buy atleast $20 (US $) of their products per year.
