Trip to the Blue Mountains








Hi there, we have all just returned from a wonderful weekend in the Blue Mountains(about an hour West of Sydney). The views were amazing and the walking unbelievable with all girls managing some 'meaty' climbs and descents! We were even congratulated by two Aussie walkers for bringing the girls along.... did we push too hard?? Anyway, the girls loved it especially the Sky Walk (see-through bottom cable car) and the railway descent. The 3 Sisters was magnificant and everything we found seemed to be on a similar huge scale compared to anything we have ever seen before. Blue skies on Sat and then, before you get fed up with our weather reports, we woke to drizzle and low cloud and later rain on Sunday.. hurrah, at last. It was quite comforting really and had a real Lake District feel. We walked (in the rain) to Wentworth Falls via a 2 hour Charles Darwin Walk which was well worth it. All fine here and back home to Canberra today. Hope you are all well and having a lovely Summer. xx
