Hey Stranger!!! Thank you for this post! I have always found Uluru fascinating from the various pictures I’ve seen; however, I didn’t know much about it. Your post was quite informative. It looks and sounds as fascinating as I have always imagined. I would have loved to have climbed it in my younger years, but probably would have respected the Anangu. Living in a part of the U.S. with many reservations of American Indians, I understand the importance of sacred places. Just wish more people did, like the Korean backpackers. He should have gotten the $60,000 bill, not the taxpayers. Love the story of the fence height. Being about 5 feet tall, I need to remember that one. 🙂

Uluru looks like such an amazing place, even if you can’t climb it. I had read about it in Bill Bryson’s book on Australia but really didn’t have a feeling for the beauty of it. Great post and like so many others, I’m very happy to see you blogging again Charlie! 😀 I’m hoping to get back to it myself in the not too distant future.

What a delight fo see that you are blogging again. As you can see, you were really missed by all of us. I’ll have to do some catching up. That wonderful rock monolith is one of the things I always think about when someone mentions Australia…nice post.

What a beautiful and fascinating destination! And my daughter in college in Arizona would agree with you on the heat. She says that once it hits 120, it doesn’t matter that its a dry heat 🙂

As each before me has mentioned, it’s really good to see you posting, and to get a little peek at you and your rapidly growing son, too! What an incredibly fascinating monolith, and I enjoyed learning more about it, as well as an explanation of the impending “no climbing” rule. Seems reasonable to me! The walk-around would be something to brag about, and I’d enjoy that. 🙂 Maybe another time in cooler weather would be another experience altogether!

Hi Johanna, I hope you manage to get to the red centre one day. I think it was a quieter time to be there; we certainly didn’t see a lot of people as we wandered around the well-known landmarks – no crowds to battle which was nice.
