We have a travel day ahead as we make our way to Blackall, home of the legendary “gun shearer” Jackie Howe. He set the unbelievable record of shearing 321 sheep with blade shears in a day. A bronze statue now stands as a monument to the man and the achievement. We arrive in Longreach, a place where welcoming locals are ready to share a laugh and a good story. Tonight, we enjoy Luminescent Longreach, a spectacular light and sound experience where the story of Qantas is projected onto the mighty Boeing 747 (breakfast & dinner included / lunch at own expense).
