The weather forecast warned us of rain in the Blue mountains, but we paid little heed (and the hotel was booked anyway). What we hadn’t banked on was actually being in the rain cloud so that there was literally nothing to see. The viewpoint for the three sisters looked out to a white nothingness, and even a walk to the base of the first sister didn’t reveal any more. So it was a good job the hotel was nice (Lilianfels, the Orient Express hotel from Caroline’s birthday) and had a roaring fire going. Of course we’re on more of a budget than Caroline’s parents so we were in the local YHA, but still got to use the pool, stay warm and eat the good food, well that’s the best bit isn’t it?
