Day 151: Exploring Longreach

 The free camp spot we stayed at was actually only 4km out of town, so we didn't have far to travel to go see the Stockmans Hall of Fame. I wasn't intrested in doing it but I was draged along. We had a quick look aroundbefore we went out to see the outback show. They started off with a man riding around on a horse then he called three people out to do a quiz (one of those three was dad).
After the quiz he brought out a horse that had apparantly been to a party and had been toped up on funny stuff. He was going to make a lady ride him but he was just mucking around.
He then brought out a camel to show off (at lest he hadn't gone to the party).
After that we finished off looking at the Hall of Fame then went back to have lunch. After lunch dad and I went to the Powerhouse Mueseum to have a look.

The mueseum had loads of old stuff and early day equipment. We then went back to the van park to have a swim in the really cold pool. It was then time to go to scouts. In spite of not wanting to go I had a really fun time.

They even had a mueseum to help celebrate their hundredth year of scouts (that may be a good idea for our scout group). We then headed back to the van for a good nights rest.
