Capricorn Caves

We had one of our most peaceful overnight stays here at the Capricorn Caves- not many people and lots of raw wilderness to roam around in.

Ben blurts out, "Batman, are you in here?"

They actually hold weddings in here.

Never did find batman, he must be out on one of his crusades. 

Our longest driving day went by quite well.  We left Airlie Beach early in the morning and made our way down 450km to the Capricorn Caves.  We arrived just as the sun was setting.  The Caves had a small caravan park attached to it which was very quiet, in the middle of the wilderness.  It was a refreshing change from the BIG4 caravan parks we'd been staying at.  In the morning, Bennett enjoyed playing soccer with a little boy he met in the park.  We then went on a tour of the caves.  They were quite impressive.  Both Bennett and Glenn enjoyed them too.
