Woke early
rushed out to meet the 7:00 am pickup for Blue Mountains Tour with Activity Tours $116
So many tour busses, nerve wracking getting the right one
forgot to eat muffin
water i picked up was lime sugar water crap, ugh
we stopped at a small town for potties and a sandwich and bakery shop
I tried to order a PB&J
lady kept wanting to put butter on it
ended up with a "jam" sandwich
definitely language barriers and we both spoke english
also a chocolate croissant and coke
ate croissant and coke for breakfast (less than 20, more than 5)
Blue Mountains, Three Sisters rock formation at Katoomba
continued on to scenic world
http://www.scenicworld.com.au/
took glass bottom cableway, railway (STEEP), and skyway (39$)
then we went to a few scenic overlooks (2)
at once i bought a juice $5 (apple black currant)
ate my sandwich
then we wandered to featherdale wildlife park
http://www.featherdale.com.au/koala/
pictures with koala $20
and i got to pet a koala and a kangaroo!
it was a bit rushed as there was traffic
so hot and humid we were melting
finished with Fantasea ferry "Leave the magnificent Blue Mountains, crossing the Nepean River, and wind down with a relaxing river cruise from Olympic Park at Homebush along the Parramatta River, under the Sydney Harbour Bridge and back to Circular Quay"
tour guide was amusing old guy with opinions and a captive audience (he is very against the new international airport for example)
got off the ferry and was thinking about food, but decided to head back to hostel
Showered
Laundry $13 again
ate the muffin finally, and the candy, it got melty had to put in fridge and firm it up
Sushi $15
pack
sleep
