Day In The Life: Blue mountains getaway




So last weekend Daniel and went to the Blue Mountains for a weekend get away! It was very fun and relaxing and COLD. The top temperature was 12 degrees! But it gave me a chance to try out some great winter fashions, OOTD to follow.

Accommodation wise, we stayed at a Bed and Breakfast... without the breakfast. Daniel cousin had paid for a night at a guest house for our wedding present, which i thought was a very original and thoughtful idea. The guest house was something we would not have chosen but it was a good opportunity to try something that was a little out of our comfort zone. It was a very educational experience, we learnt we do not like guest houses. It was very uniquely decorated which allowed for many photo opportunities








As you can see, it is a hipsters dream.



While we were up there we went to Jenolan caves. Jenolan caves are regarded as Australia’s most outstanding cave system, with pure underground rivers and amazing limestone crystal formations, Jenolan Caves is among the finest and oldest cave systems in the world. We did a cave tour through the Temple of Baal and it was very enjoyable and educational. Although alot of the more scenticfic and technical terminology was, very much, in one ear and out the other. However Daniel really loved it and enjoyed being massive nerd by being able to answer all the questions, lucky he took that one Geology class at university!



As you trek through these caves you honestly feel as if you are in some fantasy movie. I swear i thought i saw a hobbit run past. 

Outside the caves, the bushland is really stunning, lots of greenery. We would of definitely done a bush walk if we had more time. 


Those were just some nice photos we were able to get while exploring the bushland!



After Jenolan we went to the Three Sisters, as seen at the top of the page.

The following day we visited the Everglads, I can share too many pictures from here because most of them are for an OOTD that will be coming soon! But i will leave you with this little sneak peak.  The camera was on timer and Daniel thought he would surprise me.
