Day 3: A visit to Bega

The morning started with a visit to Bega, the country town where the cheese comes from. The drive there was quite nice. Lovely countryside and smooth hills dominated the scenery. The centre of town was quite disappointing with uninteresting stores and no style. We couldn't even find a nice coffee shop to make a stop. So we headed straight to the Bega Cheese Heritage Centre only to be disappointed again. The place was nice enough, it had a museum and a 'crafts' store on the top floor that looked more like an op shop and a cafe and shop in the ground floor.

The cheese was nowhere to be seen, except in the fridge, just like you see in the supermarket. What's the point? I might as well go to Coles and buy it from there...I wanted to experience cheese...to see huge cheese wheels everywhere and samples....so after a quick look around we left town back to Tathra for another bushwalk under the warm sun.

La manana empezo con una visita a Bega, el pueblo de donde viene el queso. El camino fue bastante lindo. Campo y sierras suaves dominaban el paisaje. El centro del pueblo fue bastante decepcionante con negocios aburridos y nada de estilo. Ni siquiera encontramos un lindo cafecito para parar. Aique nos fuimos directamente a la fabrica de queso solo para decepcionarnos otra vez. El lugar era lindo, tenia un museito y un negocio de adornos en el piso de arriba y un cafe y un negocio de quesos abajo.

El queso no se veia por ningun lado exepto en la heladera, exactamente como se ve en el supermercado, empacadito y todo. Cual es el punto? Para eso voy al Coles y lo compro ahi...yo queria vivir la experiencia del queso...ver hormas redondas por todos lados y muestras para probar....asique despues de una miradita rapida nos volimos a Tathra para hacer otra caminata bajo el sol.
