Marengo Cave 地下洞穴，比不上国内那些有名的洞穴，不过去了趟也增加了不少的知识，这里还是有不少的活动的。点击视频跟我走一趟。


还去了个马厩，说是可以骑马，但那天马儿羊儿休息，失望之下，主人还是让我参观了马厩，看了马和羊。马儿都屁股对着我，主人特意牵了一匹出来让我拍了个合影。羊可是很好玩，一走近就钻出脑袋来，还要站的高高的好像是女人穿了高跟鞋那样。它们是山羊吗？那胡子象是山羊的，可这里是平原啊。点击视频。



下面放上地下洞穴的部分解说，词是根据网络简编的。

。。。You wait in line here. You can see the Gemstone Mining. Sifting through the dirt and rock, like early miners did, you may discover sparkling emeralds, dazzling rubies, and other assorted gemstones. 

。。。 Stalagmites are formed by water dripping from the ceiling. When the drop lands, calcite is deposited and a stalagmite grows upward. 

。。。 Stalactites, a most common cave formation, they grow downward until touching the cave floor. When the drop lands, calcite is deposited and a stalagmite grows upward. Cave popcorn or cave coral, this formation can be found in many sizes, shapes, and colors.

。。。 Helictites are small, twisted formations that project from cave ceilings, walls, and even the floor. They grow erratically and defy the laws of gravity. 

。。。 Draperies are when water entering a cave flows down a sloping ceiling, it deposits calcite in thin, translucent sheets that hang in delicate folds like draperies. Minerals provide color. 

。。。 Rimstone dams are formed as water flows over an edge, calcite deposits around the edge of the dam.
