We left Melbourne with two rental cars at 9 o'clock in the morning on August 7th. It leaves inside Melbourne city and it becomes the expressway of the 110 km/h limitation at 20 km. We arrived near Wangaratta within twice of the small way pauses, about 3 hours. After the lunch in MacDonald, we arrived at the motel of Wangaratta. WE met with Mr. Rodrock of Monterey who arrived at 8/7 when we got off the car, and Mr. Tippett will come to meet at 2 p.m. and heard the message to guide the inside of the city.

Lunch in MacDonald

It leaves a hotel at 2 p.m. and we see a church almost. It is a city with 26000 populations but there are many churches here.

This place is a wide country and seems to be a park wherever it goes but there is a wide park in the city.
