Day 3 saw the group head off from Lake Hume Resort to Bonegilla Migrant experience a few km down the road.
Here, some of the group are looking through the preserved kitchen facilities.
For Virginie Norgate
(seen here leaving the kitchen) it was a trip back in time as she was resident here briefly as a child.

We then travelled via some lovely TR back roads to Bright and Lunch at the Bright Brewery.
This is a great place to have lunch with excellent meals and facilities for large groups.
Just down the road is the Bright Chocolate Factory and quite a quantity of that delight travelled with us.

Jo and Graeme Corbett
We stayed in the Carriage Motor Inn at Beechworth and it proved a good venue, close to town and very near the Hibernian Hotel
where we had dinner. The rooms were very good and parking was good for the TRs.
Presidents of the Sapphire Coast Chapter Women's Auxiliary Joan, Cherryle and Claire with others at the dinner.
A good get together after a nice meal at the pub
The Sapphire Coast Chapter of the TR Register had an impromptu meeting where it was decided that ALL "members"
would be elected President to forestall any disputes! The ladies are all Presidents of the Ladies Auxiliary
Shown in the pics below - the culprits who put the TT together - Brohey & Pete ...

Thanks to all the 41 NSW, VIC and ACT attendees for the fun and comradeship shown during this TT - Rick & Joan
