It's Rainy

Unfortunately, during our time in Sydney, it was rainy and cold. We decided that our chosen path of travel was to go to the Blue Mountains in Katoomba. It was raining so hard- monsoon rains, in higher elevation it was super foggy, so on top of being rainy and cold, you couldn’t see or do anything in this outdoorsy tourist destination unless you had the proper gear for cold and rain, which we didn’t. We stayed at a hostel overnight which was a relief, to have somewhere dry to sleep and cook food etc. During the next day in Katoomba, we walked around the town and shopped at thrift stores. It’s been almost a month that I have been dealing with stupid allergies, and unfortunately, we are mostly travelling and planning on staying an old van that has mold. Like I said in my other posting, I am allergic to almost everything I come in contact with, and I have not slept well almost the whole time I’ve been here, which really puts a damper on my perspective of Australia. I’ll grant that there have been some really cool times, and some good sites to see.
We just got to Melbourne it’s Friday and it’s rainy, I think everyone is a little crabby from being inside a stuffy van with lots of stuff for the last couple days. I really hope that Melbourne is good! I’ve heard that it is like the New York of Aussie.
