3 nights in Mt Gambier

 I have been very fortunate to see the blue lake at its blue best, before it turns grey for the winter . The reflections and the colour look almost artificial. I have also done a drone shot of the blue lake, which I will edit and post some time in the near future. I walked around the blue lake and also drove out of town to climb and walk around Mt Schank volcano crater. I also visited 2 sink holes and went underground in the Englebrecht caves.


This picture does not even convey how blue this lake is.
