Waitomo Caves

We are in the town of Waitomo, famous for its caves. Yesterday, Doug and I went on an underground cave tubing adventure! It was so fun! Part of the time we were walking and caving, and at other times we were tubing on individual tubes. The water was freezing so we wore wetsuits. We got to jump off underground waterfalls, and squeeze through small crevices. My favorite part was when we all switched our helmet lights off so it was completely dark except for hundreds of glowworms on the cave ceiling. We got to float down river with their lights as our guide! This was one of our favorite things we have done on the trip.
Today we are staying in town to watch the superbowl. Hope you are all doing well.

Waitomo caves are definitely on our list of things to do when we get there next month! I can't believe we are going to miss each other.
