Mammoth cave

Last night was HOT HOT HOT. It finally cooled down around 2am so i did get a bit of sleep. The kids were up early so that meant thw grownups were too.after breakfast mom and i went to the visitors center to see if we could get tickets for a tour. Everyone else had tickets we had bought in advance but the tour mom, james and i were able to go on because of physical dificulties was sold out for presale. Unfortunately, the "day of" tickets sold out befor we got to the front of the line and the only tour left was the disabled tour. It wasnt what we wanted but it was all we could get.  We went back to the cabin until it was time for the tour. Everyone else went on the regular tour around the same time. Our tour was ok, a bit dull but there wernt any stairs and only minimal walking. We got to aee some beautiful gypsum flowers and listen to the cavern resonate in a certain spot when we hummmed a b flat. After our tour, we went to a&w for frosty rootbeera while we waited for everyone else to be done with their tour. In the afternoon kristy and i took ella brenna and jonas to the "trog tour" a spelunking tour foe kids. James and wes stayed behind to go fishing with dad and jon. Kk and i had to stick around the area during the tour so we made the sacrifice to sit in the air conditioning and wait for the kids to get back. The seemed to have a really great time crawling around the cave. Once everyone was back, we went into town and had a delicious mexican feast.  Then back to the cabin for some lawn darts and bed time.
