It's said you cannot get back sleep you missed the day before. Yet I wake up only after sleeping almost thirteen(!) hours at 10:40.

Shopping street Do not forget your wallet Station Next to station

The clouds have gone, the sun is back and temperature has risen to 27 degress centigrade again. After showering and getting dressed I go out exploring the center of the city walking here and there. At the entry to the shopping street one is reminded what not to forget.


River River River

I get hungry fast, as yesterday I had not much to eat, and did not have anything for dinner. All restaurants I passed were pretty empty, I found that strange, as it was noon passed. Anyway I entered one and ate a big pizza. With a full stomach I continued immediatly with my walk with the intention to reach the river.


Cooks competing Market

Arrived there what do I see: "Melbourne food and wine festival", cooks competing against each others, a lot of stands with fine things to try and me not wanting to eat anything because I had just had lunch.


Botanic garden Botanic garden Botanic garden Botanic garden

I walk through all the stands and continue my walk along the river. Later I pass the river and enter the botanic garden. Here I am no typing theses lines again entoured by good smells. I'm in the herb garden with sage, thyme, basil etc.
