Beechworth Trip








We took a trip to a town called Beechworth on Saturday. Beechworth is a popular tourist town. It is an old gold mining town.

Travelling there was fun. It was a beautiful 45 minute drive through hills and countryside. When we got there we ate at a really cool pub/brewery, located down an alley behind the shops on main street. The beer was great. The weather was nice (meaning not too hot), so we got to sit outside. Near our table, they were re-potting plants and one of the pots said "blossomtime," which was fun for us because it reminded us of Dylan's sister.

When we finished eating, we walked around the town and ate ice cream cones. We admired Beechworth's really neat looking prison. Beechworth is also famous because it was the home of one of Australia's most famous criminals, Ned Kelly. Ned wore a metal helmet into shootouts with cops.
