You've got to get down into the country to really see it Bruce. It might look all the same, but it's just beautiful when you're in it. It's so hard to describe the sense of space you feel when you're in the outback and beyond, when at the same time you can develop such a feeling of oneness. Of course, you also realize how unimportant your existence is to pretty much everything there.
It's a humbling experience.
It's been a long time since I've been to the centre, but I hope to take the kids some time in the next few years.
