UPDATES on Blue Mountain Trip

Hello everyone,

As the title speaks for itself, I was unofficially assigned to organize a trip to Blue Mountain. So for those of you who have not been there and are keen and excited to explore more of the Blue Mountain, you are most welcomed to join us. The more the merrier. :)

The details are as below.

When: 18th APRIL 2009 (This Saturday)

Time:

Please be at the Central Station by 8:00 a.m. I was informed that the train ride to Blue Mountain would take approximately about 2 hours. So if we were to be there by 8:00 a.m., we can then take the train that leaves the Central at 8:18 a.m. (The next train available to Blue Mountain would be an hour after that). Click here for the train schedule.

Ticket *UPDATE*:

The Blue Mountain Explorer Link ticket would cost you for AUD$51.00 (The AUD$29.20 ticket is for concessions only. SORRY!!!). This ticket includes return (same day) CityRail travel to Katoomba Station with all day access to the Explorer Bus.

Once we reach there, we are going to exchange our CityRail ticket for a Scenic Pass ticket with and additional payment of AUD$28.00. This ticket includes the Skyway, the steepest Railway, the Cableway and the Walkway rides.

So the total amount for transport to Blue Mountain is AUD$79.00.

Things to see and do:

Blue Mountain offers wide range of activities - from bushwalking to visiting the Chocolate Factory to getting onto the world's steepest passenger railway. For more info on the great attractions that the Blue Mountain has to offer, click here.

So our meet-up point for that day would be at the Central Station. Please RSVP this event by putting your names in the comment box or the chat board by this Thursday so that we can do the headcount.

Thank you.

Jamberroo Final Road Trip Plan


Hey ho all you roadtrippers yo! After several discussions, rethinks, repricing, cancellations, bookings and researching, Ka Suhara and I have finally come up with the final plan for the Jamberroo Road Trip taking place on the 11th of April on to 12th of April.

First and foremost, the thing nearly everyone seemed never satisfied with, is the final price.


PER PERSON:
CAR RENTAL (WHOLE TRIP): $ 46.00++ (Not including fuel and excess charges)
ACCOMODATION: $63.00 (Saturday Night)
JAMBERROO ACTION PARK: $37 (Entry and All ride Access)
OTHERS: $20-$50 (Food and Drinks)
_____________________________________________

TOTAL : $170 ++

So if your going on this trip, just bring $200, should be enough to cover everything insyaallah. Next is the actual trip plan.



Above is the proposed route we are taking for day one.
DAY 1 (SATURDAY 11TH APRIL)



PICK-UP (10AM):
University of New South Wales, Kingsford. Please be at the pick-up point before 10am and sediakn all your barang. Pack lightly (clothes for two days, swimming, and toiletries). NO SUITCASES. I will charge you a excess baggage fee if you do! Also, if you don't want to spend alot, pack some food and drinks. The first day we are going to be in the car alot, so wear comfortable clothing and bring entertainment (book, handheld game, mp3 player, pillow). I know the car is a bit small, so I will try to arrange a lot of pitstops as possible.

PITSTOP 1 (11AM-12AM)



Bankstown. My 1st proposed pitstop for the day. There are a lot of halal restaurants around this region including fast-food (MCD and KFC), so we can stock-up or have some breakfast/lunch here.

ACTIVITY 1 (2-5PM)

Blue Mountains. Looks like blue mountains is on again. Ka Suhara and I decided to put it back on cause that was the whole point of renting the car in the first place. Mostly be sight see-ing. Lau sempat, there is this apple farms closeby, and we can try freshly baked apple pies. Nyum.


PIT STOP 2 (7:00-7:30 PM)
Campbelltown. Dunno what exactly is here, but its the best place to stop en-route to jamberroo. Take a half an hour to stretch your legs and refresh yourselves. Theres a shopping mall here too i think, wouldn't hurt to check it out.

ACTIVITY 2 (9pm onwards)

Check in to the Harp Deluxe Hotel, Wollonggong. This is a fairly standard hotel. I've already booked 5 rooms, 2 person per room . The description is as follows:




"Harp Deluxe Hotel. Just 100 metres from WIN Entertainment Centre and Stadium and the Crown Street Mall. Located in the centre of Wollongong's restaurant and entertainment strip. Great value! "




We can probably have a late dinner and look around a bit. Rest, Relax and have fun.


DAY 2, SUNDAY (12TH APRIL 2009)

JAMBERROO ACTION PARK ( MORNING - 5PM)
We are going to spend the whole day at the park. Not sure what the check out time is, but dont have to worry since the park and hotel is not that far from each other. Its Sunday of Easter weekend, so its gonna be crowded and its better to buy the tickets beforehand. I havent bought the tickets yet, so I recommend you guys buy of the net. Here's the address:





Please notify me once you bought the tickets. I didn't do it cause it'll be too much hassle collecting money from you guys. Just print them out once you purchase it and don't forget to bring it on the day of the trip!!! If you have trouble with buying the ticket, please contact me aite!


BACK TO SYDNEY (5PM ONWARDS)
No deadlines here, the park closes at 5 and we are free to go whereever we want by the end of the day. So this part is still open to discussion. We don't have to go back at 5 either, if we leave earlier we can still make it to the royal national park north of wollongong. Lots of stuff to see there!

Anyways, thats the plan and the price. We're happy with it. I'll see you guys on Saturday! ROOOOAD TRRRIIIIIIIIIIIP!
