The Olgas, Kata Tjuta
Walking through The Olgas
Salt anyone?
This huge salt lake was created in the 1970's when Britain used the area to test its atomic bombs. After spending about half an hour here we all ensured that we are now completely infertile and will probably die of some weird form of cancer.*
Yeah Micky's screwed
The rabbit fence. This is the longest fence in the world which stretches right across Australia. It's a bit retarded cos, as we all know rabbits can dig! Australians aren't turning out to be the brightest of people really.

Coober Pedy is a bit of a strange town. It would be a great set for a horror movie actually. Everyone in the town lives underground in caves. They can help pay for their home or strike it rich too because this is also one of the largest Opal mining regions in Australia.
Our accomodation which was very hostel like, cut out of the side of a hill.
Sarah, Shad and Gez in the batcave
A house we got a tour of which was built underground
PARTY! It was one of the girls' birthdays so we all went to the local Italian restaurants for pizza. What a laugh. We nearly managed to clear out the whole place cos we made so much noise!

Saying our goodbyes. Look at that sad wee face
*This is complete bulls**t. I think. We do know that the area was used as a bombing range however and apparently Britain did test atomic weapons in the desert, about 200km from this location. Lovely.
