Day 27: Australia's Centre

Today we were heading off to Uluru, or maybe not. We decided to go to the Geographical Centre of Australia. We changed our minds because we talked to some people you have been everywhere except there so we decided to do it to. It was a good 150km to get to there then another 20km to the nearby town, Finke(or Aputula). Finke is an aboriginal town with not much to do, so it was only a quick drive around then back another 20km to the centre. It was a rough drive in and it was really rugged, but we made it in one peace(barely). We met up with the people who told us about it and we had lunch together. After they left we explored around and found the visitors book. We wrote in the visitors book then joked around about the condition of the flag and said that Julia Gillard should get a replacement. We left and passed a few people on the way out then got back on the road to go back to Kulgera. When we got back we went to thank the people who had told us about the centre then we went back to the van to go to bed.
