The long and boring road to Foster

I don't have much news to report except I drove from Ballarat to Foster, it was long and boring. Highlights were a massive delay on the road to Melbourne, I managed to escape on the next off ramp skipping half of it.
Avoiding Toll Roads.
And trying to get into a retail park and getting frustrated and confused at the massive busy roads of Melbourne.

Eventually arriving at Foster tired and hungry. I had to go via Mentone to pick up my big bag and drop of Johns tent, I had just missed Josie who had flown over from Wellington as they had gone to a relatives. Then I had to get some things from a retail park and the drive took twice as long as I expected so I didn't eat lunch. I was proper hungry so I made my airbnb special and then ate the rest of a chocolate bar, only I wasn't staying at an airbnb, for the first time this trip I was staying at a backpackers, agh! I feel a hundred years old. That's ok, its a small hostel with 3 rooms next to a creek, its a nice place. It has wifi which works, that's good, but no bread board. I did more boring things like washing. Everyone else is about 22.


I don't have a book to read and there's no one to tell me a story. :(

The best part of the day was the morning, I had a lovely time at Kate's airbnb in Ballarat, we talked for hours last night, she is such a lovely person and very helpful this morning, and she put on an excellent breakfast, yoghurt, muesli, cereal, toast, spreads, seeds, fresh fruit salad! She really goes the extra mile, the extra Dolf and Francesca mile.
