August 26th, 2007 Uluru (Ayers Rock), Australia

After going from extremes, hot, to cold, to warm. We decided on a place that gave us all that (and more) in one day! The outback! The whole point of going to Ayers Rock (Uluru) is to see the sunrise and sunsets, therefore, when you roll out of bed at 5.30 am, it is about 4-5 degrees Celcius outside. As the sunrise the day warms up to a good 30-35 degrees Celcius. Taking you from the lost tempatures that we see in Pesaro in winter, to the highest. All this happening in the desert with no water and no moister, you might think, hey that might help you stand the heat and not suffer from the cold. But all this lack of moister only means one thing, every fly within 100km of ayers rock is looking for ANY water he can get too. The majority of this water is coming from your mouth and eyes! Yes, it is not the most fun. So we did the best we could to arm ourselves.
