Still enjoying Halls Gap

Woke to clear sky's but very cold, so I had a lay in till it warmed up! We drove to another lookout and then a walk to the Balcony lookout from there we drove to Mckenzie Falls, there is actually a little cafe here, Brian walked down the 200 steps to the falls and I walked 900 metres to the lookout over the falls so we each got different photos, after that we drove back into town for our picnic lunch and on the way down we saw a helicopter with a line attached hovering over a valley, of course we stopped to take a photo, we thought it might have been a rescue but were told no they were bringing in the supplies to build a bridge in the valley that had been washed away in floods a couple of years back.
We had a campfire tonight with our camping neighbours and Brian showed the kids how to toast marshmallows and then place them between to chocolate biscuits to make a chocmallow sandwich, that went down well, they shared a tim tam recipe where they bit off opposite corners of a tim tam and dipped it in coffee and drank the coffee through the tim tam until it melted, haven't tried it yet, sounds good but messy.
We will stay another day here and probably move towards the Murray River on Sunday
