The young kids got out of the car.
"Mum - do we have to get out here? It's hot and horrible."

The mother led them around to the other side of the car - giving them some sunscreen and hats. "Put these on!!"
"I don't want you getting as red as the ground around you." She wasn't wrong there!!
"Take a look in that direction" She pointed over to Uluru - which stood magically in the distance so they could just see it.
Oh wow! can we climb it now?
"No - they have some set tours that you can climb part of it. From next year you can't. We'll go when we can."
