3rd September 2014 Ringers Rest

After a big sleep in, I think I must be getting a lazy masie, we decided today we would go into Mareeba.
There is a coffee plantation where you can sample as much different coffee and coffee liqueur as you like, they also make wonderful tasty chocolate,  that you can sample all day if you are able, we went there and had a huge fill of both.
After eating and drinking as much as we could we went into their museum, it is a huge museum with so many different types of coffee machines from all around the world, and all ages, they also do teas, there is a wide range of teapots, some quite amusing pieces.
It was time to go back out and sample some of the tea, and of course more chocolate.
There is a well stocked gift shop, we bought a bottle of liqueur with some coffee and of course some chocolate.
They have great lunches there but we were to full, we will have to go back for lunch another time.
We walked around Mareeba,  trying to walk the chocolate off, ha ha, it is a very surprising little town,  it would not be hard to live up here, apart from anything the weather is wonderful.
