I took an organized tour today to the Blue Mountains. It is really blue when you watch far. The blue color originates from the eucalyptus oil's chemical process when hot. Ough - that was not very scientific.
We began the day in the Olympic Park where the games took place in 2000. Very modern huge area, which was built brand new for the games. From there we headed west to a village called Leura located 1300 meters above the sea level. Lovely cherry blossom. Excellent patisserie. Then we took 2 cable cars and one crazy train down to the rainforest. The train descended in the most crazy angle I've ever seen. We took a wonderful walk then in the rainforest on wooden walkways. After lunch we visited Echo Lookout where the most beautiful view on the Blue Mountains is.
Then we went to the Featherdale Wildlife Park where we saw around 100 kinds of native aussie birds and cute Koalas, which I touched for the first time. Fantastic, so cute. Finally we took a ferry from the Olympic Park back to Circular Quay.
Wooo. All these in one single day... ;)
