Blue Mountains

We headed up to the Blue Mountains for the weekend and had a bit of drama when we locked the car keys inside the car at a very remote spot 8km down a dirt road!! Kate was panicing as memories of the film "Wolf Creek" came flooding back but her hero Bandey saved the day. Like all men, he never leaves the car without his wallet and his phone in his pocket - a quick call to the Aussie equivalent of the AA and we were sorted. It did however end up being the most beautiful spot to set up our tent for the night for another spot of camping...

We did the most incredible (and very steep!) walk down into the blue-gum tree forest at the bottom of the gorge. It took a good few hours but was really worth the effort. It got us away from all the other tourist that flock to see the iconic "Three Sisters" - we had to go and see it to get the photo but there were way too many people there for our liking!
