302. Go spelunking

It counts if you  use an inner tube, right?  This is Waitomo, New Zealand.  You get to take an inner tube through a cave system with water in it.  We had wetsuits, rubber boots, and helmets with lamps.  They also had glow worms in the caves.  The caves were yellowish stone, with a stacked look, like the Pancake Rocks on the South Island, except there were long black streaks where people had held onto the walls.  I'm generally not claustrophobic, but there were a couple places where we had to lean way back in the tube to go under the low ceiling, and I wasn't very fond of those parts.  There was a lot more walking than tubing, it seemed.
