Today we woke up at 07.45 and ate breakfast. Then we drove with Sam to the school where we said good bye to Magnus and Freya for a week. After that, Sam drove us to the Melbourne Airport.

First we sat in gate 9 and waited to get on board.
But then they called out that we had to go to gate 1 instead.
Safely on the plane.

At the airport we bought some lunch to have on the flight because we thought we would not get any at the plane.
And we did not, but we got very tiny sandwiches.
We arrived a little bit delayed after two hours flight. At the airport, we met Kevin and Lyn who drove us to their home. On the way to their house, they showed us the beaches and the area.
Here is our "hotel room".
After a drink at home, we went for a drive.
First we drove to a fruit and veggie stand where Kevin and Lyn bought some bananas and two of those custard apples.
The owner was not there because they trust that people pay.
Then we crossed the border to New South Wales and got a look of the beautiful landscape.
On the way in the valley there were lots of sugar cane fields. We stopped and tasted a fresh one. It is healthy, sweet and nice.
Then we came home and met Gareth, their son who slept here because of work. We had a drink and some biscuits with dip and ate dinner: roasted beef with vegetables and gravy. Dessert was banana custard and fruitcake. All of it tasted very good!
