Day 59 - Beechworth

 
There’s nothing better than waking up on a farm, with the sun shining and the birds cheeping (even if it is a little cold):





We visited the Beechworth Honey Shop this morning, owned by Kylie’s cousin. They have tonnes of honey products including honey, candles, ice cream, moisturiser cream and soft drinks – all made from honey.





They also have a great little tour with videos explaining the four generations of honey makers in the Robinson family (including Kylie’s cousins Jodie and Jamie), the honey making process and some great honey recipes.

Our visit to Beechworth coincides with the annual Beechworth Golden Horseshoes Festival. There are literally thousands of people in town. They had a huge parade going down the main street and I got a few snaps of the Beechworth Honey truck, tractor and bees (a copule of the bees are Jodie's kids):







Ryan enjoyed a couple of rides including the jumping castle and spinning teacups:







Accommodation – Uncle Ally and Aunty Jan

Quiz Question #67 – What do the worker bees feed to bee lava to make a queen bee?
