We spent Wednesday afternoon and evening at the Devils Marbles campground meeting up with some people we had got to know in Alice Springs. I climbed all over the rocks and took lots of photos. The top one shows just one of the rock formations which are formed by the wearing away of the softer rock. I love the colour of the tree which somehow managed to grow through a crack in the rocky ground.
This bottom photo shows just half of the caravans set to stay for the night. If you enlarge the picture you can see ours!! We are in the back row, 6th from the right. The most beautiful time to see the rock formations is at sunrise or sunset which is why people come to stay the night. The rocks light up with a golden hue when the sun is low in the sky. In the morning it feels like a magic place as I wait for the sunrise, listening to the music of the birds. Too peaceful to take photos at this time of day. (Actually I forgot to collect my camera before I went climbing!)We are in Katherine now enjoying the lazy, balmy swimming weather.
Blessings to you all and we will probably see you next in Darwin.
