After meeting Hursulas boyfriend we headed to Ben, Kate and Ryders house at Albury for a nice dinner and lodging for the night ( congrats on your engagement !) Aunty Helen, Uncle Jeff and cousin Drew visited as well, we all enjoyed crispy noodle asian salad that Tammys mum invented ...whats next Trish?
Then we headed to Katoomba the next morning with a 6 am start ,not without stopping at a canola field for a quick romp through the flowers!
As usual with us and Hursula the trip was longer than expected and took all day .. We passed through towns such as Wagga Wagga, Wombat , Young, Cowra and Bathurst and finally reached our destination ... Katoomba YHA backpackers (so far we can't fault a YHA)
Went for dinner and Guiness at a cute Irish pub before a date with Ryan Gosling at the Edge cinema 'crazy stupid love' .. We couldn't resist taking a life size Ryan Gosling home with us ( well to the YHA)
Jenolan Caves was next on the list with a crazy drive in Hursula down the winding steep roads of the mountain with only a flimsy fence to prevent us driving off the edge of the cliff .. We made it down with our lives in tact! Woo! Expert driving from Tammy
We saw 2 caves 'Lucas' and 'Imperial' and learnt all about stalactites and stalagmites, also just how dark those caves can get when all the lights go out , Asha swore she could see the roof though ...
Worried Hursula would not make it back up the mountain we reluctantly took off up the mountain expecting a long road ahead, but Hursula .. What a girl! Easy!
That night we ended up in Springwood at the Spiteri residence for dinner and entertainment ( thanks for our cool new drawing Luca)
The next morning was absolutely freezing! Far too cold and the air was full of fog , we could hardly see a thing .. Thus we took ourselves to the oldest cafe in Australia 'the Paragon' for Devonshire tea , delightful tea and scones with jam and cream (such a rad place)
A spot of Opshopping and we were saying our goodbyes and farewelling Haylie and on our way to Sydney
