Houston - Carlsbad Caverns

First proper taste of the amazing countryside that New Mexico has to offer. What a place. Absolutely unreal scenery. Again, my scribbled notes aren't making much sense - this was when we went to the Alamo to look through the gate. Silly me.
Set up camp at Carlsbad then went up a pretty amazing road to catch the bat flight. Bats where a bit short in numbers, but was still a good experience. There were probably more bats flying around the campsite than there were coming out the cave, but oh well.
Survived a night in a campsite with racoons with a hole next to my face in the tent. Add to that a crazy wind which blew someone elses tent down in the night, and the fact I'm still alive is nothing short of a miracle really.
