The Blue Mountains

Hi everyone. Happy Australia Day! It's the anniversary of the date that Captain Cook discovered Australia. It's a public holiday and the Aussies usually celebrate with barbeque and beer (similar to our 4th of July). Today, we're going to have a barbeque with our flatemates and maybe we'll go see some fireworks later. Here are some photos of the Blue Mountains which are located just a couple hours west of Sydney. The highlight is a rock formation called the Three Sisters (see first photo below). We arrived on a clear day just before the sun went down. The view was incredible.

Well, that's all for now. I'll post again in a few days. We got some bbq eatin and beer drinkin to do! Cheers, mate! Happy Australia Day!
