The Blue Mountains

Just two hours by train from Sydney and we were in the Blue Mountains for a couple of nights in a guest house:

Next on our A list is,

a trip to the three sisters

to Katoomba, 

where there's a cable car,

many little shops and cafés too,

it's like a film set from 1922.

The b&b was quaint and not smelly,

and we had lunch in the hippie Yellow Deli.

Then a wonderful find 

a real treat for your mind

A restaurant and bar 

that's by a mile so far

topped every other one, 

a place called the Paragon.

Art Deco for sure but so wonderfully real,

add to that an excellent meal.

The guest house was in fact much better than "not smelly" it was delightful... authentic 1920's with thoughtful owners, providing a lovely breakfast, afternoon tea with homemade cakes and biscuits available all afternooon and evening, and port to drink in the evening. The lounge was full of gorgeous books all about the local area.
