Sydney - Blue Mountain

It was about 10-hour drive from Melbourne to Sydney. This part of Australia is more populated so we see a lot of small towns and farmlands. The countryside is beautiful; some parts of it remind me of the rolling hills of Europe. We are staying at my friend, John's daughter's apartment near Darling Harbor. Across the bay from the Harbor area is the Central Business District and about 10 minutes walk away is Chinatown. On our first day in Sydney we drove to a popular spot in Sydney called Blue Mountain. It's about an hour and a half away from the city. There are a few small towns in the area. The views from some of the scenic spots are amazing. I've included some below.
