The Blue Mountains

---

Sophie and I wanted to fill up our valuable 2 weeks together so we took a 2hr train ride to Katoomba from Sydney and spent three days touring, hiking and partying in and around The Blue Mountains! We met a couple of other pommie girls and a few randoms at the local pub. Thanks goes to Jamie, our hostel manager and personal tour guide! Oh and his crazy friends Shane and Joe.

We even rode the mountain climbing tram... and the explorer bus was wonderful and impressively reliable! :-) Once again, a good time was had by all!

Explorer Bus
The bus system round the Blue Mountains is excellent and regular.

Pretty and vast
The views were breath-taking.

Walking
Down under... before it rained so we had a cuppa tea whilst waiting for the bus!

More Walking
The next day we did a mini hike... here's our apple break at the 'half way' point.

Central Backpackers
Hangin with Jamie (manager) & his pals, who were kind enough to show us the pub life of Katoomba!

Tree Hugging
Everyone should love a tree! Sophie likes this pic, it makes her giggle!

Admiring the views
The blue haze is caused by the eucalyptus trees vapour.

More pretty falls...
How refreshing!
