King Solomons Cave

 We had a tour of King Solomons Cave, which was discovered in 1906 and first opened to the public in 1908.  There are over 200 caves and sink holes in the Mole Creek area.  Marakoopa Cave and King Solomons Cave are the two main ones open to the public. The cave was really spectacular that the photos don't do it justice.
