G'Day from Sydney

After we left Kerang we have been making our way across the middle of this part of Australia. We have seen many signs to watch for kangaroos and in my usual style we didn't see ant after the first day. No koalas either. Our roads wound through the countryside and much of the way we were in the foothills. Then we entered the Blue Mountains which are a little higher. Last night we stayed in Lithgow which is a former coal mining town. There is a zigzag train through the Blue Mountains. Today we drove to Blackheath and drove out to see a rock formation called the Anvil. You are suppose to be able to see Sydney from there, but it was too hazy. There were many people out and around at farmer markets and craft fairs. We drove on down the road to Katoomba and there is a famous rock formation called the Three Sisters. It was very crowded so we chose a little scenic drive instead and got a great back view!
We headed back to Sydney to turn in the car and go to our hotel. All this is now accomplished. We are sitting amidst many tall hotels. We will check in with the others.
We enjoyed our little cross country adventure!
