Longreach


So finally after 25 hours on the train we arrived at our aptly named destination - LONGREACH!!!!!!


               
                                                        Papa at the station


Now Longreach is generally regarded as the home of  QANTAS although the first QANTAS board meeting was actually held in a town nearby called Winton.  


                Clearly this kangaroo has decided to endorse the Longreach QANTAS claim 
  with a bit of strategic product placement.

The town is also the home of the Stockman's Hall of Fame



and a very colourful bakery!


Today's theme was blue - I also saw a rather indigestible green!

Our home in Longreach was a very spacious cabin on the outskirts where we could admire the tail of  the QANTAS Museum jumbo jet from the comfort of our own verandah.


Regarding the tail!
