Day 25 Gregory to Normanton

 Today was a travel day as we make our way to our north most point Kurumba. Yes we are heading for the gulf. 

We are retracing our our steps back to the Burke and Wills Roadhouse and tuned north . The roads continue to get more interesting and its apparent that when something is called a development road it is often another word for lots of single lane which is not always very good.

The good thing is that as it becomes more isolated you tend to see more wildlife - ;little kangaroos, bustards , brolgas and Jabirus are on the increase. We have also seen more wild pigs and of course we are back into croc country both fresh and salties. We did see a bit of misfortune on the road where a caravan had rolled and the wreck was strewn along the edge . Lots of people have been helping themselves to spare parts including us as it will just sit and slowly deteriorate . Russ picked up quite a bit of cable and a couple of lights. It seemed to me to be a fairly new caravan so you can only hope that no one was hurt. 

Stopped in a free camp in Normanton for the night - great spot where you could sit under the trees in the shade and enjoy the breeze off the river . Russ threw in line but no action unfortunately. 

Tomorrow we head up to Kurumba,
