We spent Friday on a great tour to the Blue Mountains outside of the city. These Eastern Gray Kangaroos are in the wild, not in a zoo. One even had a “Joey” in her pouch!
That rock we are on is called King’s Table. The Blue Mountains are full of Eucalyptus trees and the oil they emit in the sunlight gives the mountains their blue color.
This cable car took us down to a rainforest at the Three Sisters rock formation and after a short walk we rode back up on the world’s steepest incline railway.
We are thinking of everyone back home and all of the Church Fair preparations. Have fun! We miss you!

We are in Sydney, Australia! I can’t believe it. We’re staying a short walk from the famous Sydney Opera House…
….and Circular Quay, the heart of the Harbor City.

Wonder of wonders – the next morning the weather cleared and here is Mt. Cook, the tallest in NZ at 12,300 feet.
And, as we prepare to leave this amazing country…one final sheep shot.
