Anyone know what a Swag is?

Well, neither did we really until we arrived at our bush camp after our Uluru sunset champagne and nibbles. The camping element of the trip was very participative…. Camp fire to be lit, veggies chopped, washing up to be done etc... I was just about to ask for my room key when out came the Swag demonstration.

A swag is basically a canvas sleeping sack with a thin mattress inside that you roll out pretty much anywhere you like in the bush and that couple of metres of desert becomes your ‘room’. That’s it.
Sand all around you, sand in your swag, sand inside anything else you are wearing... but more importantly amazing stars all above you…and not a sound. Of course, as well as star gazing, I for one went to sleep praying that nothing was going to pay me a visit during the night ;-) This pic shows our truck and our 2nd nights campsite.
