A Time of Mourning

A time of mourning.

This is the title of my blog today. It is depressing. We are packing. Today is our last night here. We are leaving tomorrow. I just can't quite grasp this at all. This whole trip went by WAY too fast... I have homework to finish...Did I see everything I wanted to? What could I have done that I didn't? Did I do enough? Should I have done more of my homework? These are the questions running through my mind. And as I am typing this I realize that my answers are: No. A lot. Yes. Yes. I may not have seen everything I wanted to. But I did see enough. If I saw any more I would have been more wiped out than I am right now. Which is saying a lot.

But the symphony on Wednesday night was okay.
Honestly it wasn't the best orchestra. Honestly, it was amazing to be watching an orchestra in the Sydney Opera House. But to tell you the truth the Sydney Orchestra wasn't amazing like you may think it would be. But overall it was surreal.

Today, we went to the Blue Mountains. It was spectacular. There is no other way to describe it. Lush. Prehistoric. Huge. Rainy. Beautiful. AMAZING. FANTASTIC. MARVELOUS. Fun. Just great. We were dropped off by a big, red, double-decker, Explorer bus in Katoomba town. We took a trail called the Prince Henry Cliff Walk to Scenic World. We took a cable car called a Skyway with a glass floor across a canyon to the side of the mountain with the Three Sisters. We then walked to the Three Sisters and took pictures. Back to the Skyway and to the Railway next. The Railway is in the Guiness Book of World Records for steepest track. It was so much fun. This took us down to the Rainforest floor. We walked around and it started to rain. Go figure. We saw many birds and lush trees. It was amazing. We traveled back up the Cablecar. It was pretty fast. We then went to a mall to buy gifts. We got opals(: They are beautiful.

Thats all I have time for today folks!! Updates later from the airport. I am going out with the groupp. It's 10:38pm(: I'm baad. Okay. Love you guys!! SEE YA SOON!
