Heading to the Tablelands

The Gulflander Train. Runs between Croydon and Normanton on Wednesday and Thursday.
What most of the terrain is like on 'The Savannah Way' I think they secretly farm the termite nests up here.

The town tip at Normanton being burnt. Could see the smoke for miles.


The beach at Karumba at high tide. This is about 7.30am. Just going to start fishing. We caught 9 Toadfish at Karumba!



Well on the move again. Enjoyed the fishing and people at Karumba but the East Coast is beckoning.
Heading across to Georgetown and then onto Mareeba. Will base at Mareeba for a couple of weeks. It is only 60+Km into Cairns and it is an area I am looking forward to exploring.
On the trip today we went back to Normanton, then turned and headed for Croydon and Georgetown. The Gulflander was stopped at Black Bull Siding so we stopped there and had coffee.
Safe travelling.
