Coober Pedy, OZ

Well, this one's gonna be kinda quick, but I've made it to Coober Pedy, the Opal Capital of the World. There's a lot of piles of dirt all around town. Since leaving Alice, Eva and I travelled South down the Stuart and then turned off to visit King's Canyon, Uluru, and the Olga's. It was nice, our first night camping was one of the nicest that we've had so far. I'm glad that I've been to Uluru (Ayer's Rock), because it's one of those things that you've got to see, but once you saw it, you'd seen it, it didn't really do any tricks and there wasn't a whole lot else to do there, besides look at it.

So, now we're in Coober Pedy, a dusty, dry town. I've been hoping to play golf here for years, and that's what I'm planning for this afternoon, it's got one of the ugliest looking golf courses that I've ever seen, sounds excellent. Anyway, we're resting here for a day, and then resuming our push South, towards Adelaide.

So, that's about all for now, I don't have a lot of time to write, so I've got to wrap this up. But, we're both safe and sound, and we survived the animals of the outback, the wild camels here are really scary, just ask Eva.
