Got up way too early for train to Katoomba in the Blue Mountains. Hopped straight on to the Explorer Bus, a bright red London double-decker, they get everywhere! Did some walks through forest and jungle, past waterfalls and fantastic scenic lookouts over the canyon. The blue haze comes from oil vapour rising from the eucalyptus trees. Walked to echo point for the classic postcard photo of the Three Sisters then walked over to one of them. Walked through the jungly hills around Leura Cascades and towards Gordon Falls, which was more of a trickle due to the lack of rain. Got the train back and ate a late fry up and sampled a pint of the local VB beer. Another tiring but fun day.
