Melbourne – Halls Gap – motor vehicle

Second try to pick up my new rented car: again not enough credit because now they want me to pay the invoice as well: What do we do, I get annoyed and frustrated. The solution: ATM, money-machine, I got it all in cash incredible!
So finally I am heading out of Melbourne city to the Grampains. Found a very nice place to stay at: Tims Place! Good food all together: 6 at one table, chatting, eating, wonderful!
The drive myself was a little boring and tiring. But so further I got, the nice the landscape looked.
Tomorrow, hiking, and mountain walking.
Stuck in Adelaide 
Monday, June 20th 2011
Adelaide South Australia
I missed my train yesterday due to wrong time understanding. Now am stuck in Adelaide with no refund.
I was really pissed off this morning. Lost some money: I hate that, who would not.
So I changed plans completely.
Got a car hired for two month now for a fairly reasonable rate. It is quite a huge station wagon I can sleep in with free camping equipment.
I need to get a mattress, and some blanket maybe.
So I do not always have to look for hostels. Which can be kind of fun as well.
Anyway I booked my flight back to Melbourne for 22nd of June. Plenty of time here and in Melbourne. I am not really interested in cities I must admit.
I should go out now and use the little daylight we have here for some exploration. I just do not feel like.
Where to go to from Melbourne?
I got a car now, because everything is by car here, I do not like this, but that's the way it is.

Category description
Money is any object or record that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts in a given country or socio-economic context. The main functions of money are distinguished as: a medium of exchange; a unit of account; a store of value; and, occasionally in the past, a standard of deferred payment. Any kind of object or secure verifiable record that fulfills these functions can serve as money.
Money originated as commodity money, but nearly all contemporary money systems are based on fiat money. Fiat money is without intrinsic use value as a physical commodity, and derives its value by being declared by a government to be legal tender; that is, it must be accepted as a form of payment within the boundaries of the country, for „all debts, public and private“.
The money supply of a country consists of currency (banknotes and coins) and bank money (the balance held in checking accounts and savings accounts). Bank money usually forms by far the largest part…
