We have now made it Normanton. On the way here we did some bush camping and found some really great spots. The first place we stopped at was Corella Dam which is part of Clem Walton Park. The camp site was awesome. We set up the caravan just meters from the river and the view was beautiful. The dam was only a 10 minute walk away for the girls and a 2minute motor bike ride for the boys. Here we all enjoyed a spot of fishing but we didn't catch anything, however Haydan was very excited to see his bait on the end of the line every time he pulled it in. We went for a walk and explored the Dam and of course the Motor Bike got a bit of a workout down all the bush tracks. There was a nice grass area for Emmalisa to practise walking and she is now taking some independent steps. I would say in the next week or two there will be no stopping her. We stayed there for three nights and just enjoyed the quiet, simple life. We then went and camped at the Flinders River which is just outside of Normanton. Here the boys did some fishing off the bank and caught a few Cherabin for a snack. Glen also hooked up 2 Barra one was too small to keep and the other . . . well it was the big one that got away. He is still gutted by the loss. We have managed to get to Normanton at a good time with the local Rodeo and Show here over the long weekend. So stay tuned for our adventures around Normanton.
