Second day in Sydney

We took an all day "out back tour". We had a great tour guide, Andy.
We drove for about 2 hours up in the Blue mountains. We stopped for breakfast in a town called Laura. Then we went to lunch in a town next to a place called Scenic world. Scenic World was pretty awesome, we took a long walk though the rainforest. This picture is on the scenic railway. They say it is the steepest rail trail in the world. It literally goes straight up and down a mountain. It's quite the thrill ride considering it was really a railway to transport coal and was not built to thrill people.

This is the glass bottomed scenic skyway. You could look down through the glass at the rain forest valley below. It was spectaculay.
The coal mines were so tiny only very small people could work them. Australia still uses coal for 80% of their electricity. Maybe Trump should be President of Australia.

Sean was so excited to pet a real koala.

He fed a kangaroo.

We watched some cute little penguins eat fish.

Petting a kangaroo. We also watched a tazmanian devil eat the head of a rabbit but we didn't take a picture.
When we got back to town we stopped for dinner at a sushi train then fell in bed and bam, we were asleep.
