It's a good day, because it's my first time to see the moon set in the morning, and today is moon festival which is very important festival for Chinese. We met two cyclists from Melbourne who want to ride the bike across from Melbourne to Perth, Darwin, Indonesia, then to London. That's really cool. So shame for me, I don't give them the immediate help for their problems, I hate my hesitate problem. Then we go to the next rest point, Pimba, which is really nice place to take a rest, providing drinking water, toilet, and pay shower in the patrol station.
Then we go to the Lake Hert, which is a salt lake, it's so special and beautiful. There's so cool with some red stuff in the lake, look like blood. We saw a long train over 150 parts, which from China Iron to the Central Australia.
Then we go to the earth entrance, underground city, Cooper Pedy. There are plenty of Opal Mine, so they dig lots of holes to find the Opal for living. Because there are too many holes in the place, many people fall down in the deep hole and most about 20-30 meters. It's very dangerous, and most of people died if they fall down to the hole. So there are lots of warning signal to make tourism take care of ground.
Because the city's climate is really hot, and they and plenty of holes, they build a underground city and make the city become very special in Australia. And it's also a friendly town for backpackers for the free shower in the Shell patrol station.
I want to have a big dinner with BBQ tonight to celebrate the moon festival, but there are no shop and signal in our camp place. Maybe keep it to the next time.
Uluru, we're coming.
