Horsham to TraralgonAuthor: jawapro

We woke up early on Tuesday. Klutz had set his alarm for an hour earlier than me - in an attempt to be ready to roll before me (for the first time).
It turns out that I was still ready to leave at the same time as Klutz.
We left early - and made it to Ballarat in time for Klutz to get his rear tyres replaced. It took about an hour - so Klutz and I walked around Ballarat for a while to fill in time.
The local Cash Converters have decided they like us, as between us we bought quite a bit of stuff (mostly me). The photo is of my haul. Mostly computer games, a few movies, and a CD.
After lunch at Ballarat - we headed into Melbourne. We followed the highway straight through - and out the other side (over the bridge and under the tunnel).
We headed out East of Melbourne, and arrived at Traralgon, where my Uncle and Aunt live (Ben and Bec) and their kids Mike and Gabi.
We spent the evening relaxing at their place - and Klutz managed to program his PSP to work as a tv remote (strange things amuse him).
On Wednesday, we continued relaxing (after sleeping in) and spent the day at Ben and Becs. In the arvo Klutz left to head to Sale (an hour further east) where he had plans to meet up with his extended family who live in the area. I stayed with Ben and Bec and spent the arvo playing with Mike and his lego, as well as teaching him how to use DosBox on his PC.
Mike and Bec decided to show me around the local sights - so we went for a tour of the local second-hand shops. I didnt spend as much as I did at the Cash Converters the previous day - but I did pick up a few books and some cars for my model train set.
Tomorrow Klutz is planning to come back to Traralgon mid morning, and we're going to Melbourne in the arvo. We're staying the night in Melbourne, and then sailing back to Tassie on the Friday.
The Trip's almost over now...
