Ormiston – Western MacDonnells

Day 18, Tuesday 29 June.

So , the old saying about life , lemons and lemonade ? Today , instead of crossing into WA as planned we spent our time on a brilliant day trip to the Western MacDonnells.

Away late/ish, because of sleep 😀👍 and then Coffee and Ham and Cheese Omelettes 😀😀, we decided to head west . Great choice , awesome views of the ranges and Mt Sonder. Followed by sensational sunset on the way home ( again). Photos not as good as we would like as using old ish iPhone. The digital camera Mark bought for his Kandahar holiday in ‘14 has irretrievably died. 🤨

    Superb photos o God’s country at its best. Definitely ringing bells for my post Covid meanderings.
