The Trip Home
The trip home was over 13.5 hours long, so we broke it up with a few stops along the way. First up was the Corvette Museum. Here they had about 75 Corvettes on display, ranging from old to new.

The next stop was Mammoth Caves in Kentucky. This is the world's longest cave system, with more than 365 miles explored, with the next closest rival a third of its size.
This is the entry to the cave
Us leaving the cave - if you squint you can see us!
We done a short self guided tour through the caves. The largest room we got to explore was over 1 acre in size (with the largest room in the caves being 2 acres). There is evidence of human existence in the caves as far back as 4000 years ago, where they would chip of bits of the stone (no one knows why yet). It was re-discovered in the late 1790's and has been used for many things including a tuberculosis hospital and as a source of gun powder ingredients. The photos inside the cave didn't turn out particularly well though.
