Back on the road and its back to the boing, boing, slap, slap. No whack co's Lin says she understands whats happening, Huh! I recon she's just hurt her hand.
We've got a short run today, just a couple of hours, so we stop off at Longreach for a couple of hours. What a nice town, clean, friendly and plenty to see and do. It's still only 10.30 so decide on a bit of breakfast. Never had stew for breakfast before, but then again, never driven round Australia before either.
Fed, watered and the bike juiced, its off once again. Another hour and we arrive just as the heat of the day starts to take its toll. Straight into the local pub and down a couple of the local brew,(just to cool down you understand). Right, off to find somewere to stay, someone recomends The country hotel, so in we go. Oh boy! this makes up for lastnight. Got the full works, TV, fridge, clean bed, kettle, tea coffee, milk and clean, fully working shower. There really is a God.
We settle in, shower and shave (well at least I do the shaving). I spend the next couple of hours getting bloged, Lin decides the TV needs a good seeing to (catching up on the benny hill show).
Tummy rumbles finally tell us its time for a refill, (yes, again) so off we go and wander back along the main street. After eating our fill at the local dinnery, we check out what there is of the town. Like so many of the outback towns out here, Not much, but there was the tree of knowledge and it looked really cool all lit up, mind you, it did remind me a little of the worlds largest windchime.
So..... another day done and I'm off to rest me sore bits (use your imagination) love you all xxx
