Bridge climb and Blue Mountains

My friend Sherri came from Toronto to visit me for a week and I had a great time with her. Unfortunately I could not take more time off work but I had both weekends with her, plus a half day during the week. I had a great time with her (hopefully it was the same for her too!). We completed the Bridge Climb and then went to Blue Mountains the next weekend

The BridgeClimb was an expensive adventure but the view was well worth it. We completed the Discovery Climb which went through the lower ring of the bridge but then we walked up the stairs that connected the lower ring with the upper ring so that we still get the view from the top. It was a beautiful day and it was money well worth spent for the experience and the view. Unfortunately we aren't allowed to bring anything including cameras but the guide took some relatively good pictures of us

For the following weekend, we went to the Blue Mountains. Initially I was going to take the train but then I thought it was going to rain, so hence we decided to go take a tour which included a few extra bonus. You can see from the pictures how terrible a meteorologist I would make, it did rain in the morning but blue skies and sunshine dominated the rest of the day. However the tour did stop by the wildlife park and we got to take pictures with a koala so it's well worth it! (the animal pics will be in the next blog)

Scenic Railway, the steepest railway in the world, I felt we needed seatbelts!
