Day 24: Goodbyes, Camels, Wind n sand

Today started as a sad day :(
We farewelled the Auzzie (and also 3 others from the Karanis crew)...
We were sad to lose them all...
But especially Roo Roo :(
Despite being a dirty, filthy australian...
Over the last 4 weeks we had become close to roo-roo and shared many laughs, mostly at her expense...

Now, we made her a card last night which had a beautifully hand-drawn image of WHERE THE BLOODY HELL ARE YA on it...

So yeah... We thought we had the last laugh...

Roo had other ideas...

Some of the posters she put on our walls :D

Some more of the posters on the walls

More posters

Yet more...

She also wrote on our oranges :O

So yes... 

As you can see...

Straya / Roo Roo came into our office in the depth of the night... and plastered it with posters... and massacred our oranges :O

Whilst this act of shennaniganary will not go unpunished we were truly touched.

We will miss our roo roo :(

Rach looking sad, whilst Roo Roo points and laughs L8RZ NRDZ.

Our day then took a turn for the more interesting as we came onto the desert road...

CAMELS...

EVERYWHERE...

SO. MANY. CAMELS!

What were they doing there?

Nobody knows...

WHY ON THE ROAD?

Nobody knows...

One thing is for certain is that the camels are now our camel friends :3

The rest of the day went pleasantly enough... 

Found a rough out of a arrowhead

Rough out 

The rough outs are the first step before making the actual projectile...

So basically what we are seeing here is where somebody 10,000 years ago grabbed a rock, started to make a projectile point and then was like HUH, SANDWICH TIME I GUESS...

Drop rough out...

Many many years later we find it :D

Hoorah!

So this was all very exciting and good...

Until...

Sandstorm...

THE HORROR...

OK SO. 

Think... sand... everywhere...

Breathing? Breathe in sand...

Talking? Talk in some sand...

Eyes open? Bad mistake

Long story short...

I now hate sand...

Which is unfortunate given that we have another 9 days of data collection in it D:
