Blue Mountain Trip

Blue Mountain....a famous tourist place in sydney. Cool weather coupled with breath-taking sceneries and a little bit of adventure, the perfect combination for those who seeks serenity and beauty within nature...

A place where i've been to last saturday (5/8/2006). Ahhh...dun you guys just love those sweet no-work weekends??

I was just tagging along with a bunch of 30 'CG(Caregroup) church' people. I have to give credit to Lissya and Micheal for their persistant effort in 'convincing' me to go along with them...

Yup, initially i didn't want to follow them. Not being a christian, I fear that i'll be one of those odd one out among that bunch of people. Furthermore, I'm kind of a introvert who stays at home lazying around, busying trying to do nothing at all... But when they mentioned 'bush-walking' in Blue Mountain, I got turned on!!! Perhaps that's the closest thing in australia to jungle trekking in a forrest. You have no idea how long i've been icthing for some outdoor outings...




The one standing in the middle is Lissya, and the one on the left is vincent. Both of them are members of the famous 'Day Avenue Gang'.. In the photo, we were standing at this place known as 'echo point'. Its like a cliff and we were on top of it.
[Yup, thats the Lissya who managed to convince me to blue mountain.]


These guys in the photo are just half the group i went with... Remember 'echo point'?? Well, this is the the pathway leading down away from 'echo point'...all the way down to the cliff's 'ground point'. So, i'm with a bunch of 20 people who wants to go down... Towards 3/4 of the journey down, some of them just weren't motivated enough to finish the journey.. And that's where they took a 180 degrees turn and went back up to echo point.


Actually, the only people who managed to continue all the way down to 'ground point' were (from left to right) Me, Kevin, Micheal and Vincent...
[Yup, that's the micheal who managed to convince me to blue mountain.]


Welcome to 'ground point'. The lowest point where the pathway ends...


Below are pictures of the heavenly blue mountain taken from 'echo point'.
