Day Off. Lurgrotte Caves Peggau

Decided to satisisfy our troglodite leanings by visiting some more caves today. To get the caves meant negotiating public transport but after the experience gained on the mean streets of Vienna we felt we were up to the task. So after a bus, train, train combo we found ourselves ready to enter the depths. Our efforts were rewarded with a private tour as no one else had turned up. Our very cheery guide was no less enthusiastic as he showed us the subteerrainian highlights. Not least of which was a seriously stunted elder tree which has somehow managed to survive 19 years underground. It has grown with only an hours artificial light a day for 8 months of the year after it's seed found it's way into the cave during a flood. The rest of the day was spent living the highlife in our luxurious caravan.
