Well, now we are in Auckland! After an early morning and a two hour drive we came to today's destination of the Ruakuri Caves. These caves, some of over 400 in the area, are an amazing geological feat performed by nature over hundreds of thousands of years.
All 42 students on the trip performed the descent and all 42 came out unscathed. Students were treated to an amazing star-like light display put on by glowworms. At points in the cave it was actually bright enough to see dimly by the bioluminescence they put off!
Through waterfalls and claustrophobic tunnels students crawled and rafted and enjoyed an amazing experience. On the busride here everyone was asleep, tired from the day. Now slightly more rested we are all going out to get dinner and see the sights.
