The Three Sisters
Another bright day here in Sydney. Thus far, the weather has been perfection. Today we ventured about two hours out of the city to the Blue Mountains in Katoomba, New South Wales. Certainly worth the train ride. We hiked for about three hours down and around the mountain (literally. around. the. mountain.) to get some great views. I have never hiked through the rainforest but I would imagine it would be quite similar to our hike yesterday. Aside from wearing JEANS, I loved every minute of it. The views of the mountains were incredible. As always, the pictures don’t do it justice. Note: you can click the pictures to make them bigger.
The three sisters climb was amazing. There was so much to see and the views were great, I have never seen something like that in the states. The best part of the day was the rail ride back up the mountain.
