| Total drive time today: 8.5 hours! Why does everything have to be so far apart!? |
 |
| My beautiful view for the whole drive so I guess I can't complain too much! :) |
The end was nearing and my back was beginning to not like me very much from all the sitting, but the sites were worth it to stay awake and watch as the Outback passed by. To break up this really long day of driving, we were first lucky enough to come across another wild lizard walking down the side of the road. This time I even got to hold it! One of the perks of sitting in the front seat and keeping the guide/driver awake. Way cool! I want to say it is a frilled-neck lizard, but I could be a little off. Sorry for the photo that I can't rotate! :)

| The lizard even sat on my head for a photo!!! |

| We became best mates :) |
Onto the salt flats and what an experience that was. The largest lake where you couldn't see properly to the other end just covered in glistening, white salt. Plus it was so warm because of the sun reflecting off of the ground. Probably helped the tan a bit! I had a lot of fun writing things in the ground too which add a little something extra to my photos.

| What an awesome experience my time in Australia has been! |

| Trying to be a bit artistic! |

| My tour company was called Groovy Grape! |
The rest of this trip was camping for one for night in the Adelaide Hills, plus last night sleeping in a swag. We were finally allowed to sleep in on the very last day because all we had left to do was the few hours plus lunch back to Adelaide. I think in total I took around 600 photos in just these 5.5 days and made memories that will last a lifetime. First proper camping experience was a success I'd say, but still don't think it is something I will do on a regular basis from now on! I also made three really great friends from England, which is just one more reason I need to go back and visit! I can't wait to bring mum & dad to the Outback to show them Uluru and everything that Australia has to offer. I have been so lucky and loved every second of my new adventures.
Until next time! xoxo
