The plan is to check out and shop at Normanton. Don't know what to expect, but know that Karumba has supplanted Normanton as the 'port' for the Gulf of Carpentaria. Normanton is many KM up the Norman River from the real Gulf... Karumba is at the mouth.
Aside from finding a grog shop and grocer... we need a photo with Krys... or at least his replica... 28 feet of croc pororsus.
So expensively shopped up a bit it's off to Karumba which is what we really want to see and experience. The blue dot on the Earth Photo is our site at the Karumba Point Sunset CP.
