Katoomba

Katoomba is a small town located up in the Blue Mountains. It is somewhat famous for the luxurious and reamy views of the Mountain that are available from there. However, i was disappointed when i first arrived there. There was a monstrous fog that surrounded the treacherous way up, and it only got worse once i actually arrived in town. I finally reached one of the more popular viewpoints at Echo Point. I was the only one there, but this did't suprise me at all; i tried to see if i could glance at the view from the lookout, but to no avail. I resigned to try again tommorrow after the fog had cleared. The view when i returned was outstanding; lush, green forests that was broken up by pinnacles and square outcroppings. Katoomba used to be a retreat for the refined back int the 30's and 40's, and it now gets by by clinging to its former glory.
