We arrived yesterday and were amazed at the queue of people waiting to get into the caravan park. 
We had been in the queue for a while when we cottoned on to the idea of ringing to book our site - which we did - and then waited happily knowing we had a spot when we got to the top of the line.
We had been in the queue for a while when we cottoned on to the idea of ringing to book our site - which we did - and then waited happily knowing we had a spot when we got to the top of the line.We settled in, set up camp and had a relatively early night.
This morning Dad, John and Sam headed out to the Qantas museum to check out the sights. They went on a couple of tours to check out the 747 and the restored 707. They reckoned it was pretty cool - and came back saying it was really worthwhile. Here are some of John's pictures.
Mum and I went and did the grocery shopping (how very exciting). We also enjoyed a cuppa at the bakery.In the afternoon, Dad and John went out fishing. They didn't catch any fish (nothing new in that) but I think they enjoyed hanging out by the river anyway.
Mum and I went for a drive - we saw three brolgas walking down the street in town - how amazing is that!
We also loved the old Longreach Railway station - very old and very lovely.
The teenagers stayed back at the park and hung out. Just in case you have forgotten what they look like, here they are. In case you are wondering, Danni is wearing a liberal coating of cous cous - Lachlan says it was an act of friendship..... dumping a saucepan of cous cous onto her. There seems to be a worrying pattern developing here! 
Well that's all for today folks. Tomorrow we are off to check out the Stockman's Hall Of Fame.
