Megan, Paige and Mike in Diamond Cavern
On our third day in the Mammoth Cave area we went to Diamond Caverns. Terry and Steve and their kids were there earlier in the month and told us to stop there. Diamond Caverns is a wet cave, meaning that the almost constant water droplets help build more interesting formations of stalagmites and stalactites. One of the things we learned on our trip was how to remember which one grows from the ceiling and which from the floor. Stalactites grow down from the ceiling because they hang "tite" to the ceiling.
