Pics from the Blue Mountains

                                 Wentworth Falls






                                                                                                         Katoomba Valley


    Katoomba Cascades - it could be Dartmoor!

                                                                                               Katoomba Falls in the background
           The cable car from the bottom of the valley



                                                                                                    One of the many views from the cable car

This parakeet sat and watched us as we were reading in the sun at our hotel

Picnic lunch - we had a lovely drive from the Blue Mountains to the Hunter Valley - even though it was Sunday there was hardly any traffic - mainly bikers treating the road like the Weymouth to Bridport Road!  We stayed the night in the Hunter Valley Resort which was very peaceful and has its own Vineyard - we did the wine tour but didn't do the tasting as we had a long drive back to Sydney and laws on drink and drive are very strict in Australia.
