Croydon

A day of travelling on the Savannah Way from Near Normanton to Georgetown. Our first stop which turned out to be quite a long stop was in Croydon an old Gold mining town.

We then had lunch and a beer in one of the oldest pubs in Qld before hitting the road again. We stopped at a couple of sites along the way but ended in Georgetown for the night.
