I've been meaning to mention our Wonder World Girl Scout trip from a few weeks ago. Had a fun time - Wonder World is a little park in San Marcos that has a cool cave (above which sits a gift shop, of course), and we all went to check it out on a Girl Scout field trip.
After going down into the cave, we were able to drive through another area and feed deer, and we went up on a tower of some sort, too. Temperatures in the cave were much cooler than above ground, where it's been brutally hot.
The cave guide led us down into the cave, and told us about old card games that used to be played in the various chambers, and explained about the geology of the deal. Part of the cave walls are big bolders, and the guide flipped the lights at one point to show everyone how dark it can be. He also talked about the time frame of things, i.e., if someone was caught down in there and was unable to espace, they'd have "x" amount of days of oxygen, and he said that madness would set in after about a week. Not so sure if it would take that long, personally.
Check out the photos...
