Traveling in the North Country Fair… Part 1 Adirondacks & Catskills

Murray’s book, Adventures in the Wilderness, extolling the freshness … [Read more...]

Blue Mountains Australia

January 3, 2013 by DaveLeave a Comment

We jumped on the morning train to the Blue Mountains - ETA: 2 hours. Of all the money we've spent on everything in this very expensive city, this was by far the best value. $11.20 AUD RT. The mountain town of Katoomba was our destination; this country town is quaint with small B&B's, picturesque wooden houses and plenty of tourists this time of year.
