Yesterday we went to Waitomo Caves. I saw stalactites and stalagmites. Stalactites look like icicles that grow from the ceiling. Stalagmites look like pointy rocks that grow from the ground. Stalactites and stalagmites are made of limestone and they grow one cubic centimeter every 100 years!
I saw lots of glowworms on the ceiling and I learned that their poop is the part that glows. We walked through the whole cave and we saw lots of cool rocks and formations. We then drove back to Auckland and stayed at a hotel close to the airport. This morning someone burnt their toast and set off the fire alarm, so we all had to evacuate. It was really annoying. We are flying to Queenstown today, Queenstown is on the south island of New Zealand.
Later skater.
That's just disgusting! Whose poop glows?!
