Sydney

 Today we thought we had done our smallest drive for the trip - a mere 45 minutes between campsites. We were not at all sad to leave our Penrith campground.  The amenities were faultless and the park was really conveniently located to the Blue Mountains where we spent a gorgeous day yesterday, the photos below don't do it justice.  It was just that some of the things not mentioned in the brochure were the fact that it was right next to a very noisy train station, there were more permanent sites than casual ones and it was about 2mins drive from a juvenile detention centre. 

Our drive down the road has brought us to Lane Cove National Park which is an absolutely beautiful park 10 kms from the city centre, with people who hopefully aren't taking off in the car every half hour all through the night like at Penrith.

I said we did our smallest drive - but that was until we thought we would grab some fish and chips just up the road.  We ended up going to Dee Why which was half an hour up the road and then drove around and around and around the Northern Beaches area trying to find our way back.  Pity it wasn't daylight because the views would have been lovely....

Tomorrow we think we will head in to the big smoke and check out the harbour bridge, powerhouse museum etc
