Day 4 Emerald to Longreach via Jericho and Barcaldine

This morning we were all up early the boys went for a long walk and the girls also went on a morning walk. We left Emerald around 10am. John and I took the lead once again. Countryside very flat endless to the horizon. We went over the Drummond range which was 535 mtres above sea level. Further on we crossed the Great Divide 444mtrs. We continued onto the Jericho where we had lunch and a walk around. Different place. Onto Barcaldine to gain some knowledge from the tree. We were all surprised at the way it was presented. The town in its prime had 36 pubs at present it has 11 pubs. Unbelievable. We then headed for Longreach, the road is very long and straight, looks like it would be cut easily. Arrived at the Discovery Caravan Park around 4pm. Settled in and had a nice dinner. Planning our next two days in Longreach. Big day ahead. Highlight of today was to Skype Melissa and Mikayla. She was happy to see us both.
