On the meeting with Kristina and Stella we decided, that our trip will begin the day after tomorrow. A Brazilian guy Bruno will also join us, so the cost for renting the car will be minimal. After a beer I returned back to Duncan's place, where I extended my stay for another day. Thanks man!
Another day in Melbourne
