We spent the majority of the day at the Rock where we took a guided tour of the “Marla” walk and then went to the local Cultural Centre. “She” spotted a small snake that disappears fairly quickly. “She” described the snake as being green in colour however, based on “His” observations and a photograph, the snake appeared to be a baby brown snake. Best left alone and in hind sight, not a close-up photograph to be taken!

We contemplated climbing the rock however, we chose to honour the requests made by the custodians not to climb. This had nothing to do with the fact that 37 people have actually died whilst climbing the rock nor the fact that it is extremely steep, slippery and downright dangerous. “He” did start the climb going as high as what is known as “chicken rock”.

We returned to the campsite mid afternoon for showers before returning to the designated area for sunset viewing. This was well worth the 2 hour wait. We did experience the joy of the motor-home lifestyle as we enjoyed a scotch with ice and cheese and biscuits whilst waiting for sunset.

On the return to our camp site, we tried the driving lights for the first time. Not bad!

Once again we had “emergency meals” for tea.
