Another short day in distance with lots to see along the way - or so we thought. After leaving Bathurst we proceeded to Jenolan to tour the Lucas Cave before heading towards Katoomba. We were going to have a look at the Three Sisters and have a ride on the Scenic Railway and Skyway, but the weather was poor and time was getting away from us. Just as well we didn't as the trip down the mountain to Emu Plains (our overnight stop about 60 km from Sydney) was very slow and we didn't get in until after 6.00pm.

Once everything was up, we had showers and the boys had made themselves beautiful (that took a loooooong time for some) it was off to look for a restaurant for tea. I can recommend the The Nepean Waterside Restaurant in Memorial Avenue, Penrith (02) 4732-3122. They went out of their way to accommodate us at 9.30 at night.

Dean, Ambre, Rachael and Andrew make their way down the path from the car park into Jenolan proper. This was one of the few times we were there that it wasn't raining.	We had lunch under cover while we waited for the cave tour to start.
Ambre, Andrew, Kieran, Daniel and Matthew listen intently to the guide while waiting on some of the steps inside the cave.	Aren't they a loving bunch? Actually it was a steep climb back to the car and they were all trying to get a help up from each other.
	All dressed up with somewhere to go. This is us at the Nepean Waterside Restaurant. Thanks to the waitress (we don't remember her name) for taking the photo.
