On route to Mount Gambier we stumbled across another incredible adventure playground at Millicent. The kids had a terrific time and even Kate and Tim joined in riding the twin flying foxes!
We didn’t know what to expect from this stop either, but what a unique place it turned out to be. The focal point of Mount Gambier is a series of volcanic craters. The largest, Blue Lake is huge. The water within the crater is grey for eight months of year and in November turns to a vivid blue for the summer. Lucky for us it had just changed. The sight was breathtaking! It was unlike any other inland body of water of its kind that we had seen on the trip. We went on some lovely forest walks and just soaked up the green ‘mountainy’ atmosphere. This end of town really was the highlight as the town centre itself held little appeal for us.
