Sydney - been there, done that.

Don't know what the big deal is.

I kid, I kid! Sydney was awesome, not in the least because we were there for New Years. A city of kind people, lots of vegetation, unexpected showers and loads (and I do mean loads) of shops.

Our muscles burning from all the walking, our skin burning from the sun, we experienced Sydney on our own time - our trip will be one long exercise of no worries/no rush.

Right now we're stationed near Katoomba, in a tiny town called Blackheath, on a camp site with a man at the front desk who proves that fat people are cheery people (he's both, very much so) and which has shower cubicles that don't have shower heads, but more like shower protrusions - this large pimple with holes sticking out of the wall at shoulderblade-hight, which spits out scolding hot water as soon as you breathe towards the faucet.

All in all, not a bad spot to go and check out the Blue Mountains (which we did today - we walked until I was literally sick from heat and exhaustion - perhaps vitamins aren't such a bad idea after all).

Keep ya posted!

Cheers
