    Alright,

    Karumba is just a fishing town, but since you are so close, it is worth a look.

    There is a heap of old gold mining history at Croydon, which I found fascinating.

    There is the Gulflander Rail between Croydon and Normanton, which if you like old trains and train travel is great .... if not, you just decide to see the train off at one end,, wave to everyone like you know someone, and then as soon as they are moving and on the way, jump in the car and set yourself up for the next spot to stop and then get out and wave at everybody, and so on, and so on. Pretty soon you will have everyone looking for you and waving back .....

    Burketown and Normanton are Ok too, but I cant remember too much about them as I havent been there for a while

    Camped at Hells Gate before, and then got back to Alice to find that the owners were relatives of friends of ours and we didnt know it

    Undarra Lava Tubes are pretty cool, back toward the tablelands
