Next stop on a busy day was inland at Waipu Cave, another chance for a spelio-experience, and...glow worms!
 |
Cave entrance (lower right); this is a DOC site, no admission
fee, no guide, little signage, hardly even a warning about the
hazards of caves, etc; this is New Zealand! |
 |
| Interior; yes, there's a creek flowing through |
 |
First you sit down by the big stalactite and wait seven minutes
for your eyes to adjust |
 |
| Alas, the flash went off! |
 |
| Anyhow, here are the glow worms |
 |
| They are impressive, especially in constellations |
 |
| Thus |
 |
| And thus |
 |
| Finally, it was time to head back... |
 |
| To the Light... |
