After leaving the Gulf and Karumba, we headed back to stay in Normanton, as we wanted to catch the Gulflander Train. Normally, the Gulflander is a train journey with an overnight stay in Croydon, the train travelling back to Normanton the next day. However, we were lucky to secure seats on a short train ride out to Critters Camp, a one hour journey each way. It was a great experience on this old diesel train, with an informative commentary the whole journey from two very dedicated and passionate Gulflander employees, who basically keep the train running on their efforts alone.
We watched the second State of Origin in enemy territory, and it was good that NSW won.
Kim and I had two swims each day in the 25 metre long pool, which was refreshing.
On the final night in Normanton, we drove out to the Wetlands and saw a freshie croc.
