2017-09-24 off to Beechworth VIC

Left: the school holidays for two whole weeks, yay! After leaving Mill's and Fil's, we rolled on until we hit Yass. It was a really nice surprise. This town is quite pretty, in quite good original condition.






Right: beware the meal sizes! This burger is as big as Louis.














Left: after the night at Yass, back on the road in the morning, a stop at Gundagai for baseball. V nice.






Right: catch practice with Lou.







Left: selfie during the lunch break at Holbrook
















Right: the submarine at Holbrook. Plenty of breaks during the drive, and some running around, all good.








Left: arrival in Beechworth VIC, one of the best preserved gold rush towns anywhere. 







Right: 4 bikes from the car, not bad. At the Priory, an old nunnery in Beechworth. A great old interesting place to stay.

We stopped in Beechworth for two nights. The nunnery is a bike friendly business, so we assembled the bikes, went for a roll around town, then locked them in their cage.



Left: the path at Beechworth, heading towards Yackandandah
















Right: the Beechworth maze. During the day around town. Meat pies for lunch, then working it off. We also stopped in at the Honey shop. They're serious bee keepers and honey makers. Bees are important for food production in general, for making fruit and veg. Louis wants to plant more native flowers to help the bees at home.
