Virginia

Guida di viaggio

A world of subterranean wonders, a milestone in geological discoveries, Luray caverns, is a wonderful weekend getaway for those who are living near DC or Virginia. It is around 2 hours (or more) drive from washington DC.
This is a picture of the "Dream Lake", a spring of water which has a mirror-like appearance. Stalactites are reflected in the water making them appear to be stalagmites. This gives an illusion that the lake is deeper. The lake is connected to a spring that continues deeper into the caverns.
All in all, it was my first time exploring caverns. It was a fun filled day, learning the stories of the cavern.

Tips: 
1) It is very crowded on weekends and holidays. If you want to enjoy peaceful, slow paced, less crowded tour of the caverns, go on weekdays.
2) If you visit the caverns, look for these things-
Saracen's tent - scarves and shawls of translucent calcite, falling in graceful folds, fringed with a thousand patterns, and so thin that a candle light can reveal the structure within!
The fried eggs formation - yes, it looks like fried eggs ;)
The Great Stalacpipe Organ - An actual organ which plays music- sounds of Stalactites! DO NOT miss this one!
#Nature
This was at one time considered the highest point in Virginia.  This landmark mountain is located off the Blue Ridge Parkway near the Peaks of Otter Lodge and Campground.  1.5 mile to the top from the Visitor's Center with a 1300' elevation good.
1.5 miles around. No swimming. But a playground for the kiddos, dog friendly and tons of fishing spots :)
When walking along Richmond's Flood Wall in Manchester, you can leave the path and head toward the river. I did just that on a snowy day to get this photo. These ruins are part of the old Richmond and Peterburg Railroad Bridge, of which only the pillars remain. What's really cool is that you're actually permitted to climb them, and the tallest even has climbing hooks installed! #snow #architecture #bestof5
If you're into waterfalls, here is a great one in WV!

Everything worked really well in the room, a nice suite. The hot water was a little interesting because it fluctuated, and the water pressure was weak. Very clean space though, and the washer/dryer was a really useful addition.
