Day 2 Lets Brew!

It is Day 2 in Melbourne! We have had quite the day today. It all started off with some seminars that talked to us about the Australian cattle identification system. The state of Victoria has an electronic ear tag system for identification. We had 3 different people talk to us about the system. This is what we did the first half of the day.

We then took the bus all over Melbourne. We stopped at the Shrine Memorial and it was just awesome. We could see the whole city of Melbourne from the top! I will upload pictures so you can see! :)

Then we went to the St. Patrics Cathedral. This church was AMAZING! Like no other church i have ever seen before. It was the most beautiful architecture! We also went to see Captain Cooks family cottage, but we had to pay to go inside so we didn't do that. We spent a short time at the botanical gardens in the conservatory as well!

The last thing we did for the day was go to the Carlton Brewery. It was there where they package 2 million liters of beer per day. It is the biggest Brewery in Australia. This experience was really really cool to see first hand. After the tour was over we got to taste 4 different kinds of beer. My favorite was the Pear Cider. It was delicious! It tasted like champaign without the bubbles! haha

After we were done eating we went to go eat. Unfortunately, I didn't eat anything because I started to feel really sick. Me and a few other people went back to the hotel early. I woke up this morning and felt a lot better. I hope that I don't get that awful stomach ache back again when I am on the trip of a lifetime! :)

Well that is all for now guys! Thanks for reading my blogs and will talk to you again tomorrow!
