Bumble Beginnings

Template:Missionbox Bumble Beginnings is the first mission of the Honeybloom Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2. The mission gets its name from combining the stereotypical beginning to biographies, "humble beginnings", with the bumblebee.

Mission

Upon entering the galaxy, Mario finds some Bees searching for their Queen Bee's Power Star. Once Mario progresses a bit more, he finds a Bee Mushroom. To complete this mission, he must make his way to the end of the Honeybloom Planet using his Bee form to stand on clouds, cross gaps, and bounce off grapes. He then must use a Sproutle Vine to reach the Log Wood Planet, where he must dodge Bee Eaters, Choppahs, and Flower Mimics. When he reaches the end of this planet's sidescrolling section, Mario finds the Power Star above a cloud guarded by a Choppah. After getting the Power Star, a Bee sends Mario a letter containing a 1-Up Mushroom congratulating him for finding the Power Star.
