Me and Tom rushed to get ready for the bus at 8.10am to go to the Blue Mountains. They are called this because the vapour off all the eucalyptus trees make it look blue. We went to a volcanic crater and walked up to Euroca, saw more kangeroos. Wentworth falls was next, brilliant veiws and a couple of nice water falls. One of which Charles Darwin had walked through. Lunch was in a pretty little village called Leura, which is famous for its gardens. Echo point was an amazing view, especially of The 3 sisters. We then walked down 1000 steps at scienic world. In the rocks is a face, quite scary. The aboriginals have a story about this rock and the 3 sisters. wont bore u with it now. We went back up on the world steepest inclining train, which was fun, we were facing down the hill so goin backwards, and nothing to hold u in!! It was built for the coal miners that used to work there. Bcak at the hostel i saw Lulu on the webcam :o)
