Ayers Rock and Alice Springs

I recently returned from a 5-day trip to Ayers Rock and Alice Springs with my mum. There were so many flies in Ayers Rock and its surrounding area! I swallowed at least one fly and two went up my nose but were subsequently sneezed out. We didn't climb Ayers Rock because our tour guide had Aboriginal blood in him and dropped us off so far from the climbing route that it was not possible to complete the climb within the allocated time. I also regret not completing the full circuit at the Valley of the Kings at Kata Tjuta or attempting the rim walk at Kings Canyon (due entirely to the fact that I not only had to consider my interests but also my mum's wellbeing). I guess it means I will have to return to Ayers Rock one day and soon while I still have some small level of fitness in me.
