Royal Easter Show & Blue Mountains

Royal Easter Show @ Sydney Olympic Grounds.

On Easter Sunday after an Easter breakfast Amanda and I went to the Royal Easter Fare - it couldnt me more non religious Easter atmosphere, we were surrounded by horses, ponies, cows, goats, sheep, dogs, and various activities like dog obedience, horse high jump, dressage, a rodeo and various crafts exhibiotioned. There were contests and awards, and you could view the animals up close. Like going to a really big farm. I reall enjoyed the rodeo, the first time I saw something like that. It was quite busy, but we had a real good time.

BLUE MOUNTAINS


On Monday we drove up to the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. The weather stayed dry, we walked around, enjoyed the views of forest, valleys and blue-ish mountains. A nice getaway from the city and unfortunately we weren't the only ones having a break as it took us 3 hours to get back due to one long traffic jam.
