Ayers Rock

Its great to see familar things at times. We were looking for a service centre to fuel up and I was surprised that there were very few. Could take a byroad into a township but we didnt really want to do that unless we had to.

Finally we see the familar blue sign with the fuel pump sign and toilets and crossed knife and fork in 2 kms. Good, fuel and eats bonus.

Oh no, we have been there before many years ago and we remember that it wasnt very clean and there were lots of flies.  We pulled in anyway as it would only be a short stop.

Yay, it had improved! There were a few shops inside and a subway plus burger abd chips.
This was to have been a theme park many years ago when two brothers who had travelled with their families and made docos for TV about places they went.

This was the first and only thing that they had built and due to mismanagement and downturn of ecomony they went broke. The brothers also never spoke to each other for many years, they did reconcile just before one of them died.

It is called Little Rock and takes the shape of Ayers Rock just much smaller.
