It seemed our neighbor was going to see the sunrise, as she left very early. We had more time, so we slept in a bit and then had time to explore the surroundings. In the light I saw a bit of Uluru, so I decided to take a little hike up a dune in the distance after breakfast.
It was amazing, no other people and just nature. If we ever come back again, this is the place I want to spend the night and it might even be a nice place for a sunset view from the top of the dune.
Back at the car, we packed up and left for the the first leg of our trip towards Adelaide. At Eridunda we got a bit of fuel, enough to get to Marla, as they sure where charging mid desert prices (2,85, where I have also paid 1,52). In Marla we filled up and continued to Coober Pady. The lady from the museum had told about The Breakaways and I had found there was a camping place on the cliff.
This was absolutely an amazing place to camp. We started to have dinner on the cliff and after sunset we put up the tent and went to bed. During the night however the wind got stronger and stronger. I first put down some Of the flaps, but just before dawn I decided to move the car down the cliff out of the wind. This was much better, but we missed the view in the morning, although without the wind we slept in till 9.
