Morning tea was at Picannini Plains. We successfully negotiated the Quarantine Inspection Station.3 emus were on the road and we saw a flock of Red-tailed black cockatoos. We stopped at Quinkan Hotel in Laura, picking up our camper-trailer and having another enjoyable meal at the pub, and slept the night well away from the rooster!
