Diesel on the way to Uluru

Gidday,

Well as most of you are aware we are "doing a lap of the paddock"!!! We finally made it to Uluru yesterday (after 6 wonderful weeks in Tasmania) - We drove from Port Melb, thru to Murray Bridge, Port Augusta and stopped over night in Coober Pedy (what an experience!!!), we plan to do the rest of S.A. at a later stage.

We thought it expensive when we stopped at Spuds Roadhouse - Pimba (Stuart Highway) we paid $1.48 per litre, we had a shocking head wind so towing the van we went through the juice and decided it was better safe then sorry so we filled up again at Marla $1.58 per litre for diesel and I paid $3.25 for a litre of milk. We stopped at Ebenezer for lunch and took note of the diesel pump $1.90.

We then stopped for diesel at Curtain Springs $1.75 I guess you pay for being so remote!!!

We are here at Ayers Rock resort (Caravan park) for 2 nights - drove out to the rock yesterday afternoon and it is awesome, today we are going to the "Olgas" then back to the rock to do some more walks - worth the expensive diesel!!!!

Will post more pictures on the web later today or tomorrow:
