With our second wedding anniversary fast approaching at the beginning of May, Sidd and I tossed around several ideas on how to make it a memorable occasion. As luck would have it, Sidd randomly had a week off of work and I was also able to take a week off from my part-time position. Yes, I did work for 2 months in Brisbane, but must confess that of those 2 months, I was able to take 2 weeks off f... Read Full Entry

What a bad idea!

Yup, more wine...

Beautiful vineyards

yum yum - more sustenance for cycling!

Tinklers!

We loved the name of this winery.

Tinkess

Hmm... where are we going?

One of the disadvantages to camping is that it's hard to see at night. Head lamps are wonderful.

Italian Food

Enjoying yummy food in Hunter Valley.

No. 14 Hostel

ns. Our hostel in Katoomba, in the Blue MountaiThis was a boarding house back in the early 1900s!

Three Sisters

Was quite chilly up in the Blue Mountains, especially at 8am!

Autumn in the Blue Mountains

The trees were beautiful.

Start of the Hike

Looks so innocently boring... but leads to spectacular views

Hello!

Giants among Mountains

Finally, we used the tripod we hauled around!

Grose Valley Gorge

A topside view of the rock on the $1.35 stamp that we went in search of.

The $1.35 Stamp

This is almost the exact picture on the stamp!

Blue Mountains

Looking up at our lunch spot.

Jump, but carefully!

Sheer cliffs

Not being too crazy about heights, I stayed well clear of the edge.

Campsites
Campsites were about $20-25 depending on the facilities. I think almost every town on the East coast has at least one campground so we didn't really plan where to stop. Basically, we had a rough idea of what we wanted to see and would stop when we got tired. The place we found on one mile beach was stunning - very much recommended. Good luck and have fun!
