27 kms to Longreach



After arriving in Longreach and settling in at the Caravan Park we planned the next day to start looking around. But before that we collected our first shipment of mail from the local post office.




Day 13

Today we went to the QANTAS Founders Museum which is the first head quarters of Qantas, but its no longer active and we went for a tour of the 747 Jumbo Jet and our tour guide let us do some things that we didn't pay for (I got to go under the floor) and I sat in the pilot's seat and then she let us go in the other plane.


They've got the Boeing 707 which was a privet jet for a Saudi Prince Bandar for free, if we had paid for that part of the tour, it would of cost another $100 so it was great a bonus.

The plane was really luxurious with lots of timber panels and the bathrooms had solid gold fittings.






We went to the Stockmans Hall of fame it is pretty cool but we didn't see all of the museum, which was OK because we went back later.
