More on Australia by Joan

Guess it is past time to get in a few more photos and comments from my trip Down Under. I showed you our visit to Uluru and the sunset. We also attended sunrise but since it was somewhat cloudy, the pictures of Uluru were not spectacular. However, I caught a couple of the sunrise that I liked real well so I will post them. We also visited another rock formation which is also sacred to the Aboriginies and I have a nice picture of that which I will post. The formation is called The Olgas.

Lorraine and I also met up with some of the wildlife while in Australia and I will share some of those photos with you as well.

Me, up close and personal with a Roo. We also saw kangaroos in the wild.



At the hotel where we stayed in Cairns, the egrets roosted in the tree outside our room every night. Here they are.
