Thursday, we got up early so we could get to Carlsbad Caverns first thing. We walked down to the cave entrance and all these birds were flying around. They kinda creeped me out, I may have preferred the bats to be flying around.
We followed the switchbacks down into the caverns. It got darker and darker. Seth was a little freaked out at first, but he eventually got used to it.
The caverns smelled a little urinish, but we got used to that too. We were asked to use our "library voices", but we had to test out the echo with some "Hello!"s and a few show tunes. It took about an hour the get down to the "Big Room".
We took a break and then hiked the room down there. It was very cool. Dave listened to the audio tour and the rest of us read the little plaques at the coolest sites. Camryn brought her camera and took tons of pictures. We really enjoyed visiting the caverns.
