Carlsbad Caverns

We stayed in Carlsbad for the night at another motel (we got in way too late to camp) and got to pray for the maids again in this place. Funnily enough, they were also Indian. In the morning we went to Carlsbad Caverns, my favorite place so far. The caverns, or caves, were amazing! God has really done some amazing things underground. I wish my pictures could do it justice, but they come nowhere close. The lighting was too bad to get any good pictures. The Caverns were absolutely huge, they went on and on. We did a self-tour while killing time, and then did a guided tour. During the guided tour, we learned about the guy who discovered the caves. Can you imagine being the first person to discover something like that? During the tour, the guide gave us a “black out” in which all the lighting is turned off. We were able to experience true, total darkness. She told us that our eyes would never be able to adjust to this amount of darkness. I think that was my favorite part of the tour. God has really made some absolutely incredible creations!  In the next post, Taylor will explain an encounter we had with some girls in the parking lot, after the caverns, in which God used us to share Jesus with them!
