Holiday - Day 4

Day's summary: Well, it's not really over as I write this but at least I have a few things sorted. After waking up after a comfy sleep (far comfier than thought originally) I went and paid for my accomodation. $20! That's ok. It was offset by the fact that I didnt have to buy dinner! Went up mount Oberon and found that due to a recent bushfire, the only path up the mountain (you can drive part of the way up) after the carpark went for 700m then was unable to continue. Still got a couple of photos but not as good as hoped.
Drove to Phillip Island and looked at stuff for a little bit. Not really much to look at but got a refreshing cappucino at the cafe there.
Continued on to Melbourne. Go here at about 4:30 and started to look around. I realised that my options for accomodation were limited. I thought I could drive through and find a camping site on the other side of Melb or could try and find a cheap Hotel. However, sitting down waiting to see what I would do, I stumbled across some American tourists (who would have thought, right) and thought, where would they stay...? The answer dawned and at the local info centre I found a close YHA - with Parking. For all of $31 I am staying in a 4 person room, have a bed, somewhere to park the car and are heaps close to town so I can actually do some exploring. Thanks heaps to God for his abundant provisions to me!
