The Blue Mountains

Hey folks

Just a short blog as we wanted to show you some pics from the Blue Mountains which we visited last Saturday. We also wanted to report that Thundercat survived her first road trip. So she has officially been broken in and we will now commence our travels!

The Blue Mountains are about an hours drive from Sydney and they get their name from the blue mist that rises from millions of Eucalyptus Trees (also known as Gum Trees) this mist hangs in the mountain air and tinges the sky.

Here are a couple of pics:

The famous Three Sisters - Katoomba

Hi Jess and Gavin. Wow! What a time you're having. A far cry from the Raploch in the rain. Keep blogging, it's great to get updates.
