ラム酒造付属の製糖工場

12月20日（土）快晴

収穫されたサトウキビは鮮度が命。トロッコで製糖工場に運ばれ、その日のうちに絞られます。QLD州北部のサトウキビ地帯には多くの製糖工場があります。バンダバーグでは製糖工場に隣接してラム酒蒸留工場があり1人1000円の入場料を払うと見学できます。2杯の無料の試飲と30％の割引購入の特典つき。450km南下しゴールドコーストで、金曜島で働いていた勝又君と再会。金曜島もウミガメが上陸しますが夜間交通困難で見学は無理のようです。

Annex sugar factory to rum distillery
Sat. December 20 : fine

Most important thing about harvested sugar canes is their freshness. They are conveyed to the sugar factory to be squeezed on the same day. There are a lot of sugar factories in sugar cane producing areas in QLD. The sugar factory in Bundaberg has an annex rum distillery and you can inspect it with $14 entrance fee. It includes 2 glasses of tasting and 30% discount of take away. We went down to south 450km to get to Gold Coast and met again with Mr. Katsumata who used to work on Friday Island. Turtles land on Friday Island, too, but the transportation at night is too inconvenient there to see egg-laying.
