The Blue Mountains

A trip up the Blue Mountains today. A thunderstorm last night has thankfully brought down the temperature a little (I realise that, reading this in the UK, you’d probably think I am very ungrateful for hot temperatures but this is definitely too much for me!).
When we first arrived we thought the mist was really thick and we thought we would see nothing as you can see from the pic.


However, the mist lifted through the day and we finally got some views. This is called the three sisters.


This is supposed to be the steepest funicular railway in the world. Difficult to capture exactly how steep but all those seats that look laid back at the station are bolt upright as you go down!


No idea why a photo with a stuffed parrot was necessary!!

But a nice afternoon in an interesting park - even a bit of exercise up some steep steps - thank goodness for those gym sessions.





Watch the blog tomorrow for the views from the top of Sydney Bridge.

    Les are you planning to convert that stuffed parrot into another hat for your collection?!

    Your trainer will be delighted to see you sprinting up those steep steps Joan!
