After almost 2 months of doing prettty much this nothing this week is filled with activity. I went camping on the weekend in the beautiful West McDonnell Ranges. We spent the first night camping near John and Malley’s outstation with them and their family and then the next two nights at Ruby Gap. It was high clearnace 4 wheel drive only into the place and it was intense for me but worth it. Ruby Gap is stunning and I was able to lie around most of the day, reading, sleeping, swimming in the waterhole and just enjoying the views and being in the great outdoors. Also went for some little walks and we had some fires in the evening under Central Australia’s incrediblt skies.

Today I am off to Darwin until Saturday. I have some training to do for work as well as catch up with colleagues there. I am hoping it is not too humid and disgusting there.
