Second day of driving

After another fun night at the Henn house we hit the road headed for Carolina.  
 Brandon enjoyed the pipe cleaners thoroughly!  
 We decided since we drive this route all the time and never stop at anything, this time we should.  After much debate, we went to the Luray Caverns and were not disappointed.  We took an hour tour through the caverns.  Incredible!!!  Most of the formations only grow an inch or so every 100 years.  Phenomenal to see living proof of how long our planet has been here.
 This is one of the lakes in the caverns.  At it's deepest, it is 18 inches.  When you looked at it, it looked like you could jump in and do a cannonball.  So cool!

 Yep, that's an organ.  Some guy spent years figuring out what notes different formations made and came up with enough to play some great songs on the organ.
 The caverns donate all of the money that everyone throws into the wishing well.  Amazing to see how much money they raise.
 The fried eggs.
