In Longreach we set up camp in the van park right across from the Qantas Founders Museum. From this entrance to town the unmistakable symbol of the airline is clear to see under a massive Airpark Roof enclosure that dominates the skyline. As we parked so did a number of brolga, right beside us, and they are very at home here in our van park. Next was a trip into town to resupply the pantry and access wifi. This required a rest on the verandah of the Longreach Tavern. I like the name of the other hotel in town. It’s the Birdcage as it is situated on the corner of Duck and Galah Streets. Actually, we’ve quickly realised all the streets are named after birds. Before returning to the van we took a drive out to the Golf Club but quickly decided we are spoilt by grass covered fairways and green greens in Darwin and will skip the possibility of a game here. Our stay here is just a bit early for the Outback Qld Masters which begins in Biloela and finishes in Longreach with $1M hole in one up
