There was a big party at the campsite on the first night which was a bit obnoxious, but we were pretty tired and thankfully we weren't in the same section, otherwise it was a really nice spot.
I'm not sure what I think about the lake - it was beautiful, but it looked pretty gross for swimming - it would be better if you had a boat.
We walked through the Candlebark Nature Walk - there were so many butterflies and it was really pretty.
I tried for ages to get pictures of the butterflies but they just blend into background - you'd walk over a bridge or by a fallen log and 20 or 30 butterflies would burst out from below.
Then we hauled ourselves up the Merlo's Lookout Track - it was a short walk, but all up hill. We were pretty pleased with ourselves when we make it to the summit.

Are you sure we're going the right way??
Nearly there
YAY we made it!!
This little fella just wandered out on the road in front of us

The lookout was stunning but the road was so windy and some of the on-coming driving was a bit erratic! Wouldn't recommend for the faint of heart
