Our morning tour around the base of Uluru was lead by a lively Outback guide who told wonderful stories about aboriginal life and traditions and the significance of paintings and places on and around Uluru. We also visited the Anangu Cultural Centre and had the opportunity to purchase beautiful aboriginal paintings and wood carvings.

After a drover’s lunch back at our hotel, we were back in the air and arrived at Cairns in the early evening, checking in at the Kewarra Beach Resort where we spotted three wallabies on the grounds. We enjoyed a group dinner outdoors before retiring to our bungalows.
