Made It To The Gulf

Gordon & I left the old gold mining town of Croydon this morning with its population of wallabies, that seem to have taken the town over. A brief stop in Normanton on the bank of the Norman river with its life size replica of the largest croc ever caught in Australia at a whopping 8 metres long. The purple pub is in Normanton. Next it was on to our campsite for the next two days at Karumba, the home of grey nomads in Australia over the winter months. The climate & the lure of catching a barramundi seem to be the main attraction. On Wednesday we should meet up with Terry at the Burke & Wills roadhouse junction & Ian when we get to Darwin.Trevor has been here in Karumba for a couple of days, so is moving west tomorrow along the sealed roads to Jabiru & Darwin.Our next major stopover will be at the Lawn Hill National Park, later this week.
