Colour everywhere

Isn't this a great pic. The mountains are blue/purple, the ground is red, the vegetation is going into flower after a little bit of rain and that clear blue sky.

Yesterday we headed up to Stanleys Chasm with all the other tourists before heading up the highway to Hermansberg, the birth place of Namatjira. Unfortunately the mission and surrounds were handed back to the locals some time ago and is now in need of lots of TLC. On a brighter note they have the first solar power plant that we have seen, very impressive.

From there it was off to Palm Valley on the 4wd only track which spends most of the time in the Finke river and that means sand, rocks and bigger rocks. By the time we had traversed that, RT (truck) was an expert on rock hopping. The top speed on this piece of road was about 5klm with most of it at 1 - 3 klm. So pics tomorrow.
