So we're gonna have to play catch-up a bit. The last month have been fairly eventful with a kick-off to our travels beginning in the Blue Mountains, just a quick two-hour train ride from the Sydney CBD. We decided for the long weekend (labour day here in NSW), we should get out of the city for a little fresh air =)
We stayed at the Carrington, a historic hotel in Katoomba. The weather was a little cold, but we got some good hikes in and saw some beautiful mountain country... The Three Sisters (mountain formation), dense forests, cascades and beautiful flowers in nearby Leura.
Eric rolled his ankle on the treacherous Furber steps, but was a real trooper and made it to the top! Thankfully the next day was very foggy and rainy, so we had a more relaxed day topped off with a "real" hot chocolate at the nearby chocolatier --- hot milk served over a burning flame with all the chocolate bits we wanted! Overall it was a great kick-off to our month of fun and travels. Unfortunately we've run out of free space on Flickr, so we'll switch to posting a few photos to the blog with more comprehensive albums on Facebook. Enjoy!
