The road today takes you to Australia’s Outback teddy capital of Tambo, home to the Tambo Teddies. Back in 1992 when wool prices crashed and the area was gripped with drought, the enterprising people of this Outback community came up with the idea of making bears to support the wool industry and create employment. All individually named and numbered, each bear has an official name representing a local property. Call in and watch a bear being made, take a stroll along Coolibah Walk or visit the Heritage Precinct and Grassland Regional Art Gallery. Enjoy a tasty lunch in one of the friendly cafes or pubs before travelling the short distance to Augathella. For over a century, Augathella was a main stop for bullock teams and drovers. It was the junction of two major tracks, one heading north into central Queensland and the other heading south via Charleville into New South Wales. The bullock teams would settle under the majestic local black butt trees to meet up and rest in between their long journeys throughout the Queensland Outback. Take time to rest in the shade of these trees over lunch and breathe in the fresh air. You have a date with the stars this evening so be sure to arrive in Charleville by late afternoon, well before the sun starts to set to allow time to check into your accommodation before heading over to the Cosmos Centre to view the stars like never before at their observatory.
