THAILAND














We stopped in Thailand on our way to London it is probably the most amazing place we have been to. It's crazy. There are Tuk-tuks driving  around the street, even the name is crazy - they have three wheels and are taxis, they drive around beeping their horns. When you go to the temples there are armed guards so they must be very important to them. Thank you for reading my blog, see you next holiday. 




SYDNEY PART TWO


We found our selfs in Sydney once again but this time staying in a sky scraper dad got really freaked out and didn't want to sleep (but he did). Unfortunately I couldn't take a picture of this massive building  because my cameras batteries went flat. We went to Luna park it's fantastic it's a preserved 1960s fun fair and it has so many rides don't worry there not from the 60s as well. I went on the rotor which is a machine that spins you round and round and round faster and faster  until stick to the wall. Last of all in Australia but don't worry it's not over we saw the fire works on the Harbor bridge it was sensational I have got to get Batteries.

BLUE MOUNTAINS

On Christmas Eve we drove from Sydney to the Blue Mountains. It was very foggy when we got there. For the first time it was properly cold and we got a Christmas Eve feeling with a fire and decorations. The next day was Christmas day and I got a boomerang with an Echidna, which is my favourite Australian animal. We went sight-seeing to the Three Sisters which are huge rocks in a gorge, looking down onto a huge rain forests.















Its very strange seeing English things on the other side of the world and other things like English muffins? The Blue Mountains have the weirdest things but some of the most amazing things the heights and drops take your breath away. We walked on cliff walks and over bridges with nothing under them for at least 5 miles.



We went to Scenic World where there was a selection of transportation around the cliff including the world's steepest railway, the world's steepest cable car and a Skyway - a cable car that goes super high and has a clear floor.
P.S. MERRY CHRISTMAS
