We decided to do day trips vs renting a car and going away. If i havent mentioned it already the guys and I found a senior ticket that is only $2.50 all you want public transport Train, Bus, Ferry.
We hoped a bus, a train and got on the western train line. Stopped in Blacktown, bussed it out to Featherdale park, I have been waiting to go here!
Overall so impressed and loved this place. So many more animals, lots of them just out with you, very fun afternoon.
The get to see kangaroos and wallabies!
Peacocks and albanio kangaroos!

dad wasnt getting much closer - didnt want one to jump on him. they were pretty crazy active, jumping in and out of their areas...
this crazy bird didnt seem right to be just walking around!
this one was caged
this bird was super tall, you cant tell in this pic, hard to give it perspective, but its leg had to be 4 feet alone.
crazy owl bird just out and about, look at those human eyes...like the one i saw in bali
they blend right in with the log, there is 3 there
The train ride was another 1.5 hours up to Katoomba in the blue mountains. Had a late lunch in town and made it to the 3 sisters look out for sunset. Super chilly in the mountains, unlike the 80s in the city!

the 3 sisters!
u can see why they call it the blue mountains!
