Blue Mountains

Just west of the city of Sydney are the beautiful Blue Mountains!  The drive was spectacular, and for anyone who has driven the road to Hana in Maui you will know what I am talking about.  Both drives are very similiar except the road to Hana has tighter hairpins, and closer turns, but both are amazingly beautiful!!  The few days we were there was quite cool, rainy, and misty.  Some people got lost on a hike because of the poor visibility, and had to be rescued.  We even saw some kangaroos... a few on a hill, one on the side of the road, a few others in the ditch, and unfortunately one squashed on the road!
