  • Uluru is truly magnificient!

    Are there any news regarding the barring of visitors climbing the rock? I heard that the Aborigines wanted to discontinue the climbings due to the latest political struggles with the Australian Government regarding alcohol, child abuse and else?

    Cheers from Bali,
