The Blue Mountains, Australia

On Wednesday the whole crew (my sister and brother-in-law, their kids, my brother and sister-in-law, and I) went to the Blue Mountains, located west of Sydney.  It was a gorgeous day and the kids did great!  We had a morning tea picnic before hiking down for a view of Wentworth Falls.  Then we had a delicious lunch, play in a park in Leura, and we made it to Echo Point just in time to see the sunset on The Three Sisters formation.  Enjoy the photos!

Australia- The Final Post

Here it is, my final reminiscent post on Australia.  It’s been fun reliving the trip by sharing some of my favorite photos here.  These were taken in July 2011.  Thanks for indulging me!

I took this after attending the symphony in the opera house- it was a magical night!
