Worming Around Waitomo

---

Early morning drive to the Waitomo caves where we set out on a five hour Abyss Adventure with The Legendary Blackwater Rafting Company. After gearing up we abseiled 40 meters down into the caves. Once down there we were treated to some extreme caving exploring via aerial zip lines, jumping off waterfalls, tubing and crawling and climbing places we didn’t think possible. We saw thousands of glow worms lighting the cave. Too bad they didn’t do anything to warm the 50 degree water. It was an exhausting and exhilarating trip and we were happy to check into our hotel in Hamilton for hot showers.
