Last week, my dear friend Edgar from the Phillipines came to visit and we decided to get away for the weekend. Said and done! After picking up the rental car we were off aimlessly.. With no idea of where to go but South we started driving and the pictures are a show you of what kind of places we ended up in and what we did. Just have to mention that the Blue Mountains was a very nice part of the trip with splendid views reminding me of the Grand Canyon. Quelle spectacle!!

After a steep climb off the cliff, we found this nice lagoon where I could put my mask on and search for the sharks! It was pretty scary actually to be alone in the water. However, I knew I could depend on Edgar and his Prada flipflops to quickly save me in case of emergency.. hahaha

Well for some people just being themselves they can make money. Note the cigarette and remember that for playing the Diggereedoo you need to breath in and out at the same time. He was a very nice guy but people treat aboriginals with fear and reluctance here. Me no like!
