Tablelands

The wind blew us out of Karumba so we found a nice quiet spot in Croydon ( an old mining town), then headed through Georgetown (more old mines) then onto Gobbold Gorge. We done the three hour gorge tour, well worth the look and a great camp spot and shared a campfire with fellow tourists.
Next stop was Mt Surprise and done the Undarra Lava tubes tour which was excellant. Then moved onto an old mining town called Herberton and booked a hotel room because of rain, our first for 4 months.
Spent the day checking out the historic past of the town and then spent the next 2 nights in Atherton (still drizzling) checking out the highlights of the Tablelands. Beautiful tropical countryside.
On the way to Mareeba we stocked up with lots of tropical fruits and vegies, (yummy and cheap). Then headed down the mountain to Mossman and the Daintree and camping tonight at a beautiful park on Wonga Beach and wet again.
