Day 2...A Deep Dark Hole

This was probably one of my most favorite days of our trip...Carlsbad Caverns. It was amazingly beautiful and HUGE! I had had pretty low expectations (I thought I would be claustrophobic), but this place is so BIG, you just don't feel that way. The caverns are 753 feet below the ground, and cover an amazing 600,000 sq. ft.

After we got up to ground level, I texted my psychologist father and told him that I had been in a deep dark hole, his reply "Climb out as fast as you can, it only gets worse if you stay down there, stop digging it makes things worse!" Only my Dad.

The rest of the day was spent making the trek to San Antonio. After we checked into the hotel, we went down to the Riverwalk (which is beautiful), ate dinner at the Rainforest Cafe (huge discussion on the cost of the souvenir alligator cups, which to my great frustration...we bought), and then on to see the Alamo at night...AWESOME!
