Civil Defense Caves

We finally had a very nice weekend (hooray!) so I was really excited to get out of the house and do something fun.  I gave Mitch several different options and he choose the civil defense caves because it was the closest and we had never been before.  
(sorry the pictures aren't the greatest, our camera broke in cali so we just use the phone)

I was so happy we went because they turned out to be pretty neat and not to difficult so we could carry Addy since she was being a little wus. 

I can't really blame her though because it was really dark and cold and water kept dripping on our heads! To me it just added to the adventure but probably not so much for a two year old!  Part way through Mitch was tired of hearing Addy whine to "go back" so we turned around.  One day I want to go back and find out what they call "fat man's misery"!
 
Once Addy found out we were heading back out she was way more pleasant.  When we got to where you could see some light from the exit, she even got down and walked on her own.  

At the entrance, there are quite a few big piles of rocks you have to climb over and she wanted to do those all by herself too.  So we will have to go back and see if the second time she does better.

We even took home a small rock as a souvenir!
