Carlsbad Caverns

We took another COVID trip in July with Pops, this time to explore a New Mexico treasure that we have failed to visit in the almost 20 years that we have lived here. Carlsbad Caverns!

Pops wasted no time getting right into character for our plunge down into the caves....

It was very cold, but extremely beautiful. The caves revealed crystal covered formations and lots of bats!

All was right with the world until suddenly AJ had to pee....so we ran through the last 1/4 mile of the caves to get to the bathroom in time. We. Barely. Made. It. There is nothing like kids to make a leisurely day an adventure!
