Carlsbad Caverns National Park, NM

The system of caves—IMPRESSIVE!  I had been here as a child, but remember being more enthusiastic about the huge number of bats flying out of a cave for their evening feast of insects.  This trip, no bats (they won’t migrate here for another month or so), but the formations in the cavern and size of it—oh-my-gosh!  Even Matt was overwhelmed and excited.  We were able to do a self-guided tour of the Big Room and a guided tour of the Kings Palace.
