If they live with someone else then you... can only visit them at their home when they are home alone. - If the person you form a bubble with has children or dependents then they can bring their children or dependents with them when they visit you, and you can bring your children or dependants (if any) with you when you visit them. - You can only form a bubble with someone who lives in metropolitan Melbourne. You can travel more than 5km from your home to visit the person you form a bubble with. The person you form a bubble with needs to be the same person throughout the first and second steps.

Napili smo se Vugave na Visu, izgubili busolu ve u Klisu, ubrali žute dunje i na kraju ipak videli beli Zagreb grad. Ne umire pisma Nenade, hvala za ovo prekrasno druženje sa našim lanovima i do skorog susreta uživo u Melbournu.
