Day 48: Thu 09 Jul 26 - Longreach

Thu 09 Jul  26 - Longreach

10 to 27 Degrees, partly cloudy, strong winds gusting to 41km/h in the morning, easing in the afternoon.

A quiet day today, due to another 02:00am rise when Olli decided to get up, but he seemed disoriented and was acting very strange. We all ended up going back to sleep after about an hour and slept through till about 07:00am. At least Olli's nausea and gastro seemed to settle overnight and we were only waken the once. Thankfully, throughout the day, he started returning to normal too, but  is still not 100%. I stayed around the van most of the day, doing small chores, then went out for another late afternoon ride around town and out to the river near Apex Park. Noel drove into town to buy a few groceries for our departure tomorrow and also spent most of her day at the van. Tomorrow we will aim for Winton, another town that we have already visited, so we'll see where we end up.

Only a few landscape photos from the ride today.

A passing storm which didn't come close
