This past weekend 4 friends and I rented a car and drove 3 hours south to the Waitomo Caves. With a guide we abseiled into a 30 meter deep cave where we spent 4 hours trekking up the subterranean river and then floating back down the river on intertubes. When we turned off our headlights and trek around in the dark we could see literally millions of tiny little glowworms on the ceiling of the cave. It looked just like a milkyway. There were even eels in the water and hairy spiders on the wall and I braved through it all. To get out of the cave we rock climbed back up the 30 meters on a steep and slippery wall which was exhausting and wonderful. All these photos were taken by our guide.
Dressed to impress.
