Blue Mountains

Today we took a two hour train journey from Sydney to Katoomba to go to the Blue Mountains and see the 'three sisters'. (The big rocks). There is a story behind why they are called the three sisters which the aboriginal tribes believe. The story goes along the lines of a magic man took his three daughters hunting, and they were about to get eaten by this scary creature so he turned them into stone with his kangaroo bone. The creature then chased him and cornered him into a cave where there was only a tiny hole to escape, so he turned himself into a lyer bird and got out. They also believe that when they see a lyer bird, who looks like they are searching for something on the ground, this is the magic man trying to find his kangaroo bone so we can turn him and his three daughters back to humans :).


Here we are on the lookout to the three sisters.
