Sydeny, Australian Capital Territory
Sydney!
Today we've been to the Blue Mountains to see the three sisters which are rock formations. The story is that they fell in love with men from another tribe, and when the men came to claim them, their father turned them into stone, before going to fight the men. Unfortunately he died, and so the sisters remained as stone and are waiting until this day! We also went to Wentworth falls, which was a trickle of water because of the drout; we went to the rainforest; walked in the bush to see some Kangaroos which were really cute, and then called back to see the olympic village - the site of the 2000 Sydney Olympics. I'm completely zonked by this point, so tomorrow we're going to do some shopping in Darling Harbour and Cockle Bay, and then Sunday we are taking it easy.
On Monday we are heading down to Canberra the Capital which apparently is rubbish. Sydney and Melbourne had a falling out about who was going to be the Capital of Australia - so the governments compromised and built Canberrra in the middle - which is not exciting and there is nothing to do there so we are told. We shall soon find out!
