A tower and a little Chinese.
After walking through Chinatown, which luckily is right near the hotel and getting a little breakfast at a Chinese version of a greasy spoon, we wandered through a dark and stinky version of the Queen Victoria Market. I can’t believe how many versions of the same junk souvenirs as every other place on the street…

Uluru / Ayres Rock
Ayres Rock (Uluru) is absolutely stunning, as well as the Olga’s, which are a lesser known formation about 20k from Ayres Rock. The colors are of nothing I’ve seen before, it really is as red as the photos I’ve seen before coming here, and the detail in the rock is more impressive then the photos…

Getting it all packed, again.
I’m sitting here in a coffee shop just around the corner from my lonely apartment, as of last night all my house mates have left, and now the last friendly person on the floor is leaving tonight. So it will be myself in one corner and someone else in the opposite corner and then the…
