Sydney | Palm Beach | Blue Mountains | Los Angeles

Well, there's Palm Beach, which is beautiful. Sort of the equivalent of driving from the center of Los Angeles to Malibu maybe.­ You've got the peninsula there and the most beautiful beaches, both surf and calm beaches.­ A choice of waves or no waves, ­basically. There are also the Blue Mountains. I have a lot of memories of the two-hour drive from Sydney to mountain territory and its wonderful eucalyptus trees. We had a little cottage up there for a while, and we'd go there on the weekends. We would make fires and go for walks. It's really a different side of Australia, from the beaches to the cold, crisp mountains. There are waterfalls and some incredible wildlife as well, a lot of different animals.
