Underground Caverns and Wild Animals

Today we visited Natural Bridge Caverns. The mile-long-channel of stalactites and stalagmites extend something like 180 feet underground. The most amazing aspect of it all is the fact that it takes about 100 years for 1 cubic inch of rock to form within the caverns. These formations would have taken millions of years to form. It took us over an hour to travel through the caverns.

We also visited Natural Bridge Wild Animal Park. The highlight was a drive-through wild animal range. The animals would come right up to the car to eat food from our hands (we were given food to feed them when we entered the park). As you will see from the video below, the ostriches were very aggressive.
