We left Kulgera after a late well deserved sleep-in. 320km to the rock not 130km as the publican had advised, and although the speed limit on the roads was an inviting 130km/h we decided on 110km/h to conserve fuel so the GS could make it on a tank.
Another hot day and we spent the later part of it in the pool at the outback resort where we managed to find a couple of rooms.
Very touristy as we expected but you cannot come to this part of the country without dropping in on the rock, Olga's and kings canyon. We plan to stay here 2 nights to celebrate Matt's birthday and new years eve in a little luxury.
We hear weather is very bad in Alice with thunder storms and low 20C temperatures. no sign of bad weather here even though we are only a few hundred km's away.
