Wet Katoomba, wet Sydney

Our chances of seeing the blue mountains were dashed as we awoke to heavier rain than yesterday. Polishing off an Eggs Benedict breakfast (a tradition when visiting Katoomba, and something everyone should try), we managed to find the station in the mist and boarded the train for Sydney.

Sydney wasn't much better though, but the hotel was in the shadow of the harbour bridge, and as we had free passes to go up the turret we idled away the afternoon in there. Unsurprisingly, I didn't take too many interesting photos (but I did take some Cat!), so here's a photo of Sydney sans Opera House. There was public outcry at the time, as the disused tram depot would be knocked down to make way for the Opera House, go figure!
