Disappointing visit to Blue Mountains

We were all eagerly to visit Blue Mountains and see the legendary Three Sisters, but the weather isn’t on our side and it was a disappointing trip. It was raining and the weather was really cold. By the time we reach Blue Mountains, there isn’t anything to see except for the fog. Our guide brought us to take alook at 1/3 of the Three Sisters and sadly, we could only see half of it.

Since we have already paid for the train and sky tram tickets and were following the day tour, we had no choice but to continue to Scenic World. We were supposed to see a valley with really nice backdrop of mountains etc, but…

But at least, I’ve visited the place I was still able to get to see the Sydney Olympic Village, a place which I wanted to visit. We saw the Olympic stadium, which was renamed ANZ Stadium and the guide briefed us on the current status and usage of different venues. We then took a ferry from the Olympic Village Wharf to Circular Quay where we started our journey of post Christmas Sale.

Our post Christmas Sale took place at one of Sydney’s largest departmental store, Myer. It was 7 storeys high and opened till midnight. It was really crowded and messy, basically, everyone just grab whatever they can. Personally, I thought it was so much better than our Great Singapore Sale, the people, the mood, the crowd, its definitely so much better. Well, at least the shopping therapy made our day better.
