The Blue Mountains

Advantages: everything
Disadvantages: nothing

...This next review is on my time on The Blue Mountains National Park, located in Sydney Australia. A few friends and I had decided to hire a van and take a tour of the national park, as we had been recommended it by several people we had met along the way. I am usually a fan of national parks; it gives you a chance to take in the scenic view, it gives you a chance to relax and unwind if you have had a busy week, and you even get to see some wildlife. It?s a great experience, which allows you to camp overnight, whilst also have a magnificent driving experience. History & Park Info: The park covers 267,954 hectares, which included several mountains and rivers along the trek. The highest point of the park is Mount Werong (1,215 m), and there are some breathtaking views from the top. The area became a national park in 1932, and ever since...

Review of The Blue Mountains

Out of the Blue

Advantages: Striking, affecting combinations of music and visuals, strong central performance.
Disadvantages: Perhaps a little too blue.

..."Now I have only one thing left to do: nothing. I don't want any belongings, any memories. No friends, no love. Those are all traps." This is the resolution of Julie Vignon (Juliette Binoche), the central character of Three Colours: Blue. The survivor of a car crash which took the lives of her husband Patrice, a celebrated composer, and her young daughter, she desires nothing but to withdraw from life, cutting all ties and bonds that formerly surrounded her. The creation of a Franco-Polish collaboration, and the last project of acclaimed director Krzysztof Kieslowski, the Three Colours trilogy (Blue being the first, White the second and Red the third) takes as its focus the three foundations of the French state; Liberté, égalité et fraternité. Reflecting also the French tricolore, Blue deals with an interpretation of Liberty...

Icy Blue

Advantages: Moisturises, softens, smells nice
Disadvantages: some people may dislike the minty aroma

.... There are lots and lots of different products available in Lush stores or online, so you are sure to find a product which suits you. If you are unfamiliar with the sort of products Lush sell then I would advise having a look online as they sell solid and liquid shampoos, bath bombs, bubble bars, etc. Some of the Lush products however aren't available to buy in store; you have to buy these particular products online from the Lush website. The products which are solely only sold online at Lush are called Lush retro products and there are quite a few of them to choose from, some of my most favourite Lush products are from the Retro range Lush Ice Blue a soap which is a bright ice blue colour with flecks of bright white around the edges of it; I think that the colour of the soap is really vibrant and bright. The soap has the same sort of feel...

Review of Lush Ice Blue Soap

Feeling Blue

Advantages: Beautifully made, very emotional
Disadvantages: Not for those looking for action

...I have to admit I am a lover of French films, but also a lover of films that concentrate on people, relationships and feelings rather than action and excitement. Three Colours Blue fits the bill for me perfectly. The first part of a trilogy - the second being Three Colours White and the third Three Colours Red - it is French but is directed by Krysztof Kieslowski of Poland. I watched all three films several years ago but Blue was the one that appealed most to me, so I eventually decided to buy the DVD. As the event happens at the outset of the film, I am not giving anything away by telling you that Julie's husband and only child, a daughter, are both killed in a car accident. Julie (Juliette Binoche) was in the car too but survives, and during the initial episode of the film we see her in hospital. She has to watch the funeral...

The Dull Blue Diary :(

Jorie and Ethan Ford are the perfect couple; still in love after 13 years of marriage, one 11-year-old son and all are well liked and respected within their small-town Massachusetts community.

Review of Blue Diary - Alice Hoffman

Blue Heaven

Advantages: Relaxing, Refreshing. A unique experience.
Disadvantages: Incomplete information leaflets.

...Swimming in the hot almost-fluorescent aquamarine waters of the Blue Lagoon surrounded by black basalt lava rocks in icy temperatures of minus six degrees pelted with sporadic bursts of freezing rain is a unique experience and one I will remember for some time. The Blue Lagoon is a pool of geothermal sea water created by an unexpected consequence to the massive Svartsengi power plant. The power plant was built in the late 70s, and together with four other geothermal power plants in Iceland, produces around 26% of the country's electricity as well as around 87% of the country's hot water requirements. The power plant uses geothermally heated sea water from as deep as 2000 meters / 6000 feet below ground to transfer heat to fresh water for consumer use. The surplus brine waters are allowed to pour over onto the surrounding lava fields...

* A Crush The Colour Of Blue *

Advantages: Plot , Acting , Scenery
Disadvantages: Don't find out what happened to Anne Marie's sister

...I have wanted to see the movie Blue Crush ever since it came out in the cinemas way back in 2003 when I was twelve years old! However six years later , which brings us to the year of 2009 and me to the age of eighteen , browsing through the DVD's on sale in my local Wilkinson's , it dawned on me that after all this time of wanting to see this movie , I still hadn't gone to the actual effort of watching it. So I promised myself there and then that this time I WAS going to watch this film , and so I picked up a copy of the DVD and took it to the counter. On the same day , i was looking forward to a quite night in with a DVD , and it was then that i decided to watch the DVD. Also the same day , I had just booked my holiday for next year - a two week cruise and so I was in a bit of a 'sun , sea and sand' mood , so this film was perfect...

What's Wrong With A Bit Blue?

Advantages: Lots of big tunes
Disadvantages: One average tune

...?All Rise? was released late in 2001 and came as the debut for the UK boy band Blue. Consisting of Lee Ryan, Anthony Costa, Simon Webb and Duncan James, the Pop act (who tended to favour the R&B side of music shot to fame as their first single came out and they made an impact as one of few acts to last during a period when the music industry when through change and boy bands phased out. 1. ?All Rise? I felt that his was a great way to kick the album off as we see them ripping through their debut single and a tune that seems to round up exactly what they were as an act with a Pop-R&B jam that had a little club appeal and has them making the most of what they have to offer when it comes to laying down some strong vocals that put full use to song that they work with. It sets things up nicely and livens it all up from the get...

Review of All Rise - Blue

Wickedly blue

Advantages: Tastes gorgeous
Disadvantages: Sickly

...WKD is one of the many alcopops drinks currently on the market. There are three types of WKD - Irn Bru, Silver and Blue and today Matthew I?m going to be Blue. Sorry, thought I was on Stars in your Eyes for a moment???.. I first tried the wonderful WKD in a bar in Scotland about two and a half years ago. I remember seeing it on a shelf behind the bar wanting to try it just because of it?s lovely colour! However, I asked for a W K D and was gruffly told by the barman that in future I should ask for a Wicked. That was the pronounciation sorted, now onto the drink. The latest bottle of blue WKD that I bought was from the corner shop, which retailed at £1.29 although I think they are a lot cheaper in Tesco?s if bought in packs of four. The product is in a clear glass bottle with no fancy designs or lettering. On the front...

Light Blue

Advantages: long lasting, light frangrance
Disadvantages: can't live without it

...the case of D&G Light Blue - you spray it first thing in the morning* -And the smell of the chocolate itself makes your mouth water....then you put all the ingredients together...the aromas of the vanilla being released etc... *you put your coat on and leave the house* -then you put it in the oven and everytime you go in to the kitchen it smells Divine!!!! as it's baking *wearing it at work/uni - taking off your coat and people saying "Oh you smell great!" -then you bring it out of the oven and it smells DELICIOUS, obviously you eat some (I'm not advising you to eat this perfume may I add) *the day continues with compliments, the smell is at it's peak as it's had a good few hours to settle on your skin* -and that evening you go into the kitchen and you see the amazing cakes left over and they smell so yummy, you are very satisfied...
