One of the most important things to know about the mind and reality is the difference between thoughts and beliefs. The difference between a thought and a belief is that you may have thousands of thoughts going through your mind but none of them have any power except those that are beliefs. A belief is a thought that you make real, or accept as true. Choosing to make a thought real or not is a decisio
Uluru (The Living Rock) also known as Ayers Rock, is a mystical, magical sandstone outcrop in the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park,440 km southwest of Alice Springs in the Australian Outback.
It has many springs, water-holes, rock caves and ancient paintings.
It is sacred to the Aboriginal people of the area.
It is listed twice as a World Heritage Site - for its natural beauty and its paintings.
It is one of Australia's best known natural wonders and tourist sites. Despite its isolated location it is a must-visit for anybody travelling to Australia.
HOW TO GET HERE
By plane
Qantas run scheduled flights from most major Australian cities to Alice Springs. Alice Airport is still 450+km from the rock - so don't jump in a cab and say "Uluru!" - you'll need a mortgage to pay the fare! Quantas can also fly you to Connellan Airport - which is much closer to Uluru - but accommodation is limited here, so it's best to book both your flight and your accommodation well in advance.
By train
The journey to Alice by train is highly recommended - if you have the time. The legendary Ghan runs twice a week right across Australia from Adelaide to Darwin with Alice-Springs bang in the middle! Book early and get a sleeper.
By road
The drive to Alice is long and arduous!It is not a trip for the faint-hearted or the easily bored. Landmarks (and fuel stops) are few and far between, accommodation is hit and miss, and breaking down can be a nightmare. To put things into perspective, Uluru is, by Aussie standards, just up the road from Alice - but it still takes five hours by car!
FROM ALICE-SPRINGS
By car
The Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is 465 km (five hours on the road). Rental cars are plentiful in Alice but I recommend that you rent a well known company, and book early.
By Coach
There are countless coach and bus companies running trips from Alice to Uluru. Some of them are very good, and some of them are not! Check the online travel blogs to get some idea of what is available.

It has been said that Generation X is the most ignored, misunderstood, and disheartened generation our country has seen in a long time. No one can define who belongs to Generation X. While most agree that there is a generation after the Boomers, no one agrees on who it is. In a September 23, 1996, article in USA Today, six experts defined Generation X, each with a different answer. They ranged anywher

Thank goodness the Yankees have him.Big Daddy, George Steinbrenner, is a Yankee fan's delight. As a Yankee fan I love that so many other fans hate what George has done and continues to do. He gets the players that he needs. He pushes forward to get another championship for his Yankees. I can visualize George sitting in his office making calls to see if the superstar that he so highly touts is c

For anyone with even a remote interest in Pilates, the equipment used for training is extremely interesting. With exciting names like the Reformer and the Cadillac, how could one not be interested? While there are literally dozens of individual pieces of equipment and props for use in Pilates training, we will be focusing on two of the more popular ones.The idea for the Reformer was born when

We could all use some safe and effective memory enhancement techniques. With all the demands of work, family and life our minds are increasingly put to the test...having the mental power to go the distance is vital. However, we often find ourselves tired and scatterbrained lacking the energy to even remember what appointments we have on a given day let alone excel mentally.Our mental energy can

TIPS, HINTS & WARNINGS
It's not just the sheep that get fleeced over here! The vast, vast majority of Australians (like me) are honest, fair-minded and great fun to be around! But like any country in the world, we have our share of thieves, rip-off artists and con-men. Don't let these bandits ruin your trip of a lifetime. Take care with your money and your valuables. I would also strongly advise you to choose your excursions carefully. There are lots of cheap and nasty trips for sale in Alice. Most of them involve a long ride in a stuffy coach, a trite description of the rock, ten minutes to take photos, and then the long haul back to town! Remember, Uluru is one of the great natural wonders of the world. Your visit here should be memorable - for all the right reasons! Make the best use of local knowledge - explore this mystical place with the help of established local companies. Check the travel blogs or visit www.TheTopTenSite.com for a list of Trusted Companies.
