The first of our dinosaur tours was booked for 9:00am, so we made sure to be on-site by around 8:30am to allow for check-in etc. Another couple from our caravan park were there and put their dog into one of the public kennels before joining the group. That dog seemed to cope well with the experience, whereas we're sure Bandit would not have waited quietly had he been with us.
The dinosaur lab tour was interesting, particularly seeing the plaster parcels stacked in storage, awaiting processing.
There was a collection room presentation next and then a short shuttle bus ride to the Dinosaur Canyon. The landscape/outlook around this area was quite beautiful and definitely my favourite part of our three-hour visit.
At the end of our tour, we returned to Elmer and drove back into Winton where we did a couple of quick missions before heading out of town, toward Hughenden.
One of the guides mentioned three emu families that roamed the site. We saw those three dads with their offspring on the way back out to the main road!
