The story of Blue Mountains

This Weekend we had great fun. We went to Blue Mountains. We saw lots of places like 3 sisters, scenic world, coal mines etc. But there were few catches on this trip.

First, the temperature there was around 0 degree and had constant shower. Second, I didn’t have enough warm clothes or a rain coat to save my self from cold or rain. Third, the visibility in fog was around 10 to 12 meters. Fourth, we had heavy bag to carry on the whole trip.

These catches became a boon to have more fun on the trip. The cold weather made the trip more adventurous. Luckily we bought poncho to save ourselves from rain. But the freezing temperature and fog gave very little scope to be able to see the scenic beauty of the place.

By we here, I mean Subodh, his wife and me. Thanks to subodh that he brought some warm clothes, food and a map coz of which we managed to have fun. Bush walking, cliff lookout, Photo shoot, water fall were great. The best part of the trip was the skydiving rail with which we came down from the hill. It was at times almost perpendicular to ground and was cool. We spent a lot of time roaming around the coal mines and the experience was awesome, one of the unique in the entire holiday of Australia.

Finally when we were returning from the place we were very much tired and almost slept in the train.
