Jenolan Caves

This morning Nana and I went to the Jenolan caves and went on the "Diamond Tour" and we saw this growing stalagmite that is very big and protected. The caves are more than 300,000 years old. the stalagmites and tites grow about one mm every 100 years RARELY. New caves are still being discovered! Our tour took an hour and a half




This stalagmite is called Lots Wife

These are stalagtites and stalagmites

This is an interesting formation 

We are standing in the Diamond Cave

I'm standing near a shawl formation

I'm on my way up from the underground river
This is the entrance to the cave.
