jensenst,
I thought the mine tour was fantastic but my wife litterally froze and was speechless until we got back out after they turned the top string light bulbs off for about 5-10 minutes when we were about 1/4 mile inside so you could feel what true total darkness is really like and experience not having any sound or air vibrations at all. It was so erie and you lost the feeling of the fact that were actually standing upright and they had a pipe rail for you to hold on to. You didn't dare to move! It was so weird!
Now she won't even go down in any cave ever because she was so affected and even scared too. The funny part is that she's actually quite adventuris and always has been but don't even suggest her going into a mine or a cave.
