Staying Awhile

My day started at 3:30 am with a few final touch-ups to the program. We decided to catch the train into Melbourne as it would cost us $22.00 per hour to park and we needed at least 3 hours. We walked to Rockbank station.

Today we travelled from Finley to Rockbank,  a suburb 30 km out of Melbourne on the way to Ballarat where we’ll stay for the next 11 days while we install the SpaceCalc program at a University here.
