We left Longreach and headed out on the highway to Winton about 170kms from Longreach. We pre-booked our accommodation as we were told it was busy and we did have to ring around a bit before we found a vacancy. We booked into the Matilda Holiday Park and are staying in a cabin.
We arrived in Winton reasonably early this morning and have spent the day exploring the town. We visited the Waltzing Matilda Museum which was very interesting. I particularly liked the hologram 3d thing. Real people superimposed over pictures of things, very clever. I could watch that sort of thing all day.
There were a couple of other museums and displays to look at. We also ran into a couple that we met on the river cruise in Emerald and we had dinner with them tonight at the local pub, well one of the local pubs, there’s about four.
We have met other people too that we have met in other towns. I am sure we will meet this couple, Sue & Peter, again as they are going in the same direction as us.
Tomorrow morning we are going out to Lark Quarry to see the dinosaur tracks and also to Carisbrook Station, a cattle station. Should be an interesting day.
