Normanton - Karumba

Early this morning we did a tourist walk taking in the local history before leaving for the 70k trip to Karumba.
Karumba is divided into 2 sections - the town (which is on the Norman River) and the point.  We are staying at the point which is beautiful - right at the mouth of the Norman River with sweeping views of the Gulf of Carpenteria - MAGIC!!
We are now off to have sunset drinks at the tavern overlooking this magnificant view. Hopefully will have a great sunset shot to send you tomorrow
Harry is 'modelling" to show how huge this croc was that was shot by Krystina Pawlovski in 1957 in the Norman River.  It was 8.63m long and estimated to be 2 tons.  World record.
