I took a self-drive trip to a farm in Australia There someone shows you how to carry fresh milk There are also workshops for children to learn about the making of dairy products It is very scenic with endless farms all around See many different cows and there are shops where you can buy fresh cheese and milk Now you can visit the factory where the milk is made to see that the inside is very neat, and clean It's rare to see these attractions in Hong Kong 😂😂 #Look at the Earth in an instant
