The salt mine

Hello! I know I said I would post about this a LONG time ago, but it turned out we didn't have the pics yet. Well, in case you haven't heard yet, we went to a salt mine... about a month ago. :(:) Well, IT WAS EPIC! We went 400 feet under the ground, stayed for 2 and a half hours, and only saw 1 percent of the mine! We had to take stairs 400 feet down, and I wondered if we would ever reach the bottom. It was like... a mixture of awesomeness and impatience going down those steps. I'll get to the pictures soon, okay? We even licked salt off a wood pole! To your surprise, it tasted awesome, and I mean it! Alright, fine, here are the pictures:

I forget what the meaning of the pic shown below is. :(
The stairs going down into the salt mine, the black stuff is gum. :\
The stairs we had to take down. You can hardly see the black bottom:

The picutres are almost too good to be real. I can see why you called it epic. Papa and I are so happy you boys and your dad got to go see the salt mine.

Hello! First of all, thanks for the comments! Second, about the stairs down, the black is only where we stopped. It kept going down at the black. I would have said that if I could, but they were only teeny tiny captions.

That's all I really wanted to say!
Goodbye!
