Miles away in Oz

Woke up early and took on the endless stairs down into Wentworth Falls, tracing every small cascade that comes together to create its dramatic drop. Shoes off, straight into the water—cold, grounding, and wildly refreshing. A perfect way to start the day deep in the Blue Mountains.

From misty trails to city streets, we left the mountains behind and drove straight into Sydney. The afternoon unfolded on foot, wandering through Chinatown and down to Sydney Harbour, catching our first in-person glimpse of the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge. Australia Day brought the city to life—the harbour buzzing, packed with people, energy everywhere.

As the sun dipped low, we made our way to the bridge for the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb. Watching the sunset spill over the city from above was unreal—but the real magic came after. Music echoed through the harbour, drones lit up the sky, and fireworks exploded around us as we climbed, again and again, all seen from a bird’s-eye view. Reaching the summit felt surreal, and just as we headed back down, the final fireworks lit up the sky one last time.

We wrapped the night with a celebratory drink with others from the tour, then took the L back to the hotel—over 30,000 steps later, cawled into bed after midnight 😴.

It was a long day.
It was an epic day.Læs mere
