Day Two - Day Trip

A short trip out of town to the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney today ~ meeting some new friends for a Photo Safari at Wentworth Falls.

Only, we wound up doing a two-and-a-bit hour hike down & up Empress Falls... a little further west of Wentworth's ones. I'd never been there before & went a little snap-happy, coming home with 180 photos. I must admit the hike climb back up from the bottom pushed me to my limit by about 3/4s of the way... I was a heart-thumping, wheezing wreck by the time I made it back to the carpark.

Views like this will be the enduring memories of the day though...



Dinner with some cousins this evening, but we left relatively early, so we can be up early for work tomorrow & feel every aching muscle & strain from today's efforts.

I hate reaching my limits & feeling my age...
