Devils Marbles

Today we had a big drive from Banka Banka Station all the way to a place called GemTree.  On the way we stopped at a place called Devils Marbles.  It was a place where there was beautiful, large, circle rocks stacked in the middle of a rockless range of rolling mountains.  Some of the rocks were split in half and one was so perfect you could see the inner coloured Granite.  


Then we stopped at a town called Aileron where there were some giant statues of Aboriginals.  A man was on top of a hill and a mother, child and lizard were at the bottom of the hill and we stood beneath them.  On the way we saw a strike of lightning from the clouds and saw our first rain in about 2 months.  In the afternoon we lit a fire to keep warm from the cold night.  That night there was a storm.  There was super loud thunder crack and lots of it.  Though it was pitch black in the caravan, every now and then I could see flashes of light from the lightning.
