We spent the weekend at the blue mountains, just out of Sydney. We did a 3 hour walk to Wenworth falls; rating 9/10, the view was spectacular and the waterfall was hypnotizing.
So far Australia does not meet the standards set by its close commonwealth cousin New Zealand. Sydney is lacking character and charm, and the people seem rushed. An economic hub, but a bit of a cultural disappointment. We will have to see how the rest of Oz is...

Hi Bernadette & Oonagh
Thoughly enjoying your blogs, they even seem to be beyond expectations. Have just been watching some videos of others at bungy taupo, it was frightening, did you scream?
Lots of love grandma xxxx

Re: singapore airport

Re: Hi Bernadette & Oonagh
Hello, I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying the blogs. I think I will probably enjoy reading them when I get back. Watching people bungy is probably scarier than actually doing it. I don't think I screamed though I think I shouted 'Wooooooooooooo!!!' I meant to ask you actually, did you ever recieve my post card? Lots of love Bernie xxxxx
