The RED CENTRE
 * For our 40th Wedding Anniversary (which of course you know is "Ruby") we decided to spend it in the RED Centre of Australia - namely at Uluru or Ayers Rock as it was formally called by the European explorers.

Uluru, is a large sandstone rock formation in the southern part of Northern Territory. It lies 335kms south west of the nearest large town, Alice Springs (450km by road). Kata Tjuta and Uluru are the two main features of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Parl. Uluru is sacred to the Anangu, the Aboriginal people of the area. It has many springs, waterholes, rock caves and ancient paintings and is listed as a World Heritage Site. || ||  ||
