After spending a few days in Lawn Hill and being all Lawn Hill'ed out, we decided to continue on our journey to Darwin and head towards Burketown for the night. Burketown is a small but nice place, which presents itself as the 'Barramundi Capital of Queensland' ! So we thought we would have a quick fish, as what better place to try and break our barramundi duck! But................no luck, although Cooper did catch a monster of a catfish ! Probably would have ...

After spending a few days in Karumba, we have decided to continue our travels towards Darwin by heading to Lawn Hill National Park, passing through towns such as Normanton and the Burke and Wills Roadhouse. Did you know? - the largest known Crocodile was caught at Normanton, which measured approx 8.6 metres ! In town, they have made a lifesize copy of the crocodile, which is almost unbelievable.

Our first stop on our journey westward towards Darwin was Undara, home of the volcanic lava tubes. During our stay we got our torches ready and took a guided tour of the tubes, where we were able to go to to into the tubes whilst being informed on how the tubes were formed.
