First off, the main cave (the only one we went to) is huge. It takes about 1 1/2 hours to just walk the trail around it. And if you are ambitious you can take the natural entrance down to the cave, which is another 1 1/2 round-trip. Because we knew Lilly wouldn't last that long we took the elevator down.
This is what our first picture looked like. Then we finally figured out how to take some what decent pictures in a dark cave.
Pretty cool.
A ladder from some of the early explorers going down a hole.
Lilly decided she did not want to be in the kiddie back pack. So she either was carried or walked.
I don't know why this formation didn't have its own plaque and name... I could think of plenty.
Afterwards, Lilly needed some rock candy, of course.
When we came out, it was raining. Pretty much the most rain we had all summer and it was on our tiny vacation.
We also stopped by this little hole in the wall by the side of the road. Apparently it was used for cover by Natives or something like that.
Lilly had started doing this lately. Whenever she climbs up on something she sticks her arms out so proudly with a look that says "Look at me!"
Here she is telling us to "Sit down!" So I tried to sit with her but of course that is NOT what she wanted. She wanted us to sit in the cave. Of course.
Aliens on the outskirts of the park. Maybe we should head to Roswell on our next trip.
p.s. Happy 21 months to our baby girl today. Can't believe in only 3 months she will be 2!
