Luray caverns

I visited Luray caverns in Luray, Virginia. I felt that it was going to be okay but it actually turned out to be pretty cool. The caves were fantastic and there was even an underground lake. Even though it was 160 or something feet underground, I didn't feel a lot of pressure. As we walked down some steps to the real cavern, the large stalactites and stalagmites came into view. I was wondering why there was a German cross thing until I realized that it was supposed to represent that X marks the spot, the spot where the caves were found. There was a large stalagmite, that's the one that comes from the ground, right?, that they called Washington. I guess it was because it looked really strong and Washington was really strong. My most favorite place was the Dream Lake. It was a large lake underground that reflected the ceiling better than the most perfect mirror could. I think it is because it has lain still for decades and all the sediments have fallen to the bottom, if there are any sediments. Even though it had a large surface, it was only 18 inches deep at it's deepest. I bet the Luray people were real tempted to bottle it as mineral water until they found out that it was only 1 and a half feet deep. Overall, I think that it was a pretty cool place.
