We're heading out to Vic later this month for the Otway Odyssey () and have been thinking about doing a side trip to Kinglake/Marysville.

More info here on this weekend's 1yr anniversary:

My question is this : We'd like to visit the pub & support the local community. Some locals want people to visit, others aren't so sure. Is it too soon to visit a place that was badly devastated & traumatised a year ago?

Any thoughts?
