Lost in Blue Mountain

Here's a brief run down of what happened to us on our second day at Australia:

1. Jen and I had our breakfast at the hotel. Packed some leftover sandwiches.

2. We missed our scheduled bus trip with Asia Pacific Tour. We were instructed to catch up with the tour, so the hotel clerks were nice enough to help us meet up with the bus at Blue Mountain. We went to Central Station (which was a couple of blocks away from the hotel) to get a train & bus ride to Catomba.

3. Riding in the train going to Catomba, we got to see the suburbs of Sydney - the scenery looks much like the houses along South Super Highway going to Alabang.

4. Arrived at Catomba - Blue Mountain at 11:45am. Looks like Tagaytay. Took a trolley up to Scenic World. We finally caught up with the APT bus.

5. We rode a cable car down to Scenic World and went for a hike in the rain forest. Saw the mountain range and ridges known as the 3 sisters. Had to walk back up the trail. We almost missed the APT bus again.





5. Went to a petting zoo. Touched a wombat & koala. Took some kangaroo pics.



6. Got back to Sydney. Went window shopping at Victoria building. Sadly all shops close at 5pm (even on a Saturday).

7. On our way back to the hotel, we got lost again. We took a wrong turn and walked back where we came from.

8. Ate at McDonalds. Had strawberry shake and McOz burger (it's an Australian version of the Quarter pounder with beet & tomato mixed in it)
