Longreach to Winton . A long straight road across very flat land, amazingly we found it quite picturesque in its simplicity.
We arrived about 2pm only to find the free camp behind the North Gregory hotel was full - the Pelican Caravan Park was our chosen alternative, a small Caravan Park right in town
.
Everything in Winton appears to be run down, the Pelican is no exceptions but well located and $26 a night isn't too bad.
Sunday is quiet in Winton, as it is in most country towns, so we just had a walk around town and enjoyed another night under the country skies with "boiled beef and carrots"for dinner.
