11/7/2013 - 14/7/2013 Karumba on the Gulf of Carpentaria

11/7/2013 - 14/7/2013 Karumba 

After travelling the reverse journey from Lawn Hill to Burke and Wills Roadhouse and spending another night there we headed up through Normanton to Karumba on the Gulf of Carpentaria. Karumba is at the mouth of the Norman River and is a fishing village. The fishing includes some commercial operations and lots and lots of enthusiastic tourists who are out to catch a "barra". It is also a port for exporting zinc products and shipping live cattle overseas.

Inspite of his confidence that they would be easy to catch Gerd's "barra", tonight, came from the local fish and chips  restaurant.
