Blue Mountains Pt. I

Von Blue Mountains

Yesterday was Blue Mountains Day. After getting up at 5:45 and taking the Blue Mountains Line at 7:18 (Plattform 6 btw ;) ) to Katoomba we arrived there only about 2:20 hours later. In the middle of a nice, old fashioned (tourist-) village.

Then we made our way to the first viewpoint... The Three Sisters A marvellous view over the valley, the mountains and the three sisters was worth all the travelling so far.

After enjoying the great view we started our journey through towards the rainforrest section...walking down the Giant Stairway and testing our level of fitness for the first time :)

Down at the bottom we started walking....seeing a lot of wonderful and interesting places (right now I'm to tired to explain everything *g*). But after the first few hours of walking we took the steepest railway back to the top...(and it is really steeeeeep) and then continude our exploring into a different direction towards the cliffwalk.

Finally we returned at about 5 p.m. to Katoomba and arrived in Sydney at about 15 to 8...tired...tired...tired....but very glad to did this trip...and the next one will surely follow :)
