When you enter the mouth of the cave its like being in a new world. At first there was this creepy feeling of being closed up under the earth. But I got over that in a hurry with all the amazing things to see. Then with camera in hand I got excited over all the photo opportunities. Who would of thought all this was under the ground. You go down about 25 feet but it feels deeper than that.
The path down can get slippery so wear tennis shoes. The cavern is about 1600 feet long with quite a few twist and turns.
My nieces enjoyed the trip down under also. We had a good guide that explained how the cave formed and what the formations were; such as stalactites, stalagmites, columns, soda straws, flow stones, ribbons and draperies.
You can also see fossils like seashells and a sharks tooth in the walls.
This bat was posing for its photo. But I think the creature just want to sleep.
I have been to the Marianna Caverns in Marianna Florida quite a few times now. I always find it interesting and continuing to add to my photo collection of the Marianna Caverns.
