On August 30, Echo, Austin and I went to Carlbad Caverns. The following pictures in no way capture the unbelievable beauty and sheer awesome grandeur of these caves. Try watching Lord of the Rings as the Fellowship travels through the mines of Moria to get a feel. The "Big Room" was just unbelievable. We also did a tour of King's Palace.
We are talking of going back to Slaughter Canyon (which is right around the Corner from Carlsbad), where you have somewhat less tourist-friendly caves and you to take your own flashlight.
A descent into the nether regions of the world.
A picture of the ceiling in one of the rooms, covered in stalactites.
Random shot somewhere amongst the caves. There were stalagmites, stalactites, draperies, soda straws, all sorts of formations.
