Blue Mountain, Sydney

My First International Students Trip 

Why do you think this mountain is known as Blue Mountain? haaaa! Does anyone know the reasons? hehehe
This picture is free from any editing..and as you can see in the above picture, the sky is as blue as an ocean.. I would not know the real reason my self but I think it would be because of the sky itself. The blue sky made the mountain look blueish right? maybe the local had derived the name 'Blue Mountain' from the colour of its background..Maybe? 
Here, you can see 'three sisters stone' behind my back.There is a legendary story behind why the stone is called as three sisters.. In my opinion, the story is a bit similar to the legendary story of Gunung Mat Cincang at Langkawi..
The story of the three sisters started with a few groups of aborigines tribe and there is this three beautiful sisters. The tribe were fighting with each other and to save the sisters, their tribe withdoctor turn them into stones with hope that after he finished dueling with the other tribe, he will remove the spell..but the witchdoctor ended up perished in the battle and the sisters remained as stones forever...now, Don't you think the story is a bit similar to our own legendary story too? heheheh
If you are interested with the story, you can read it in details here 

This is the pictures from inside Jenolan Cave which is situated near the Blue Mountain... In this cave, they have a rock formation that gave similar effect to a music room/ orchestra hall... We did have the chance to listen to a song inside this cave and it does sounded like we were in a concert hall.. haha
