@backpackandsnorkel thanks for the mention of Underworld Adventures here in Charleston! We're a small family business and immensely proud of what we do - it's just lovely to stumble on your travel page and it's great review of our Underworld Rafting

@axisential the caving trip with all the glowworms was fantastic! It was one of the highlights of our New Zealand trip a few months ago

@mlevison the pancake rocks are absolutely amazing. It is unbelievable how many photos I took of the rocks. 😀There is an easy concrete trail that leads to the vista points. Was that there 20+ years ago?

@backpackandsnorkel I think it did.I took a bunch of pictures as well, back in the day when I was carrying 20-30 rolls of side film. I think the rocks got half a roll and I know they’re a real challenge for contrast.

@mlevison oh yes, I remember those times. Developing films was quite expensive, so I limited the photos I took. Now, with my cell phone or DSLR, I take at least 3 times more photos.I am not a professional photographer, but I believe I got a fairly good contrast, but maybe the lighting was just right.

@backpackandsnorkel I’m not a pro either, I just loved what slide film was capable of vs print at the time. In a year of travel I probably went through 100+ rolls of film

@mlevison I typically used up around 30 film rolls (24 or 36) per 3 week trip. I still have all the negatives in the original photo pouches from the development lab in the closet near my desk and the shelf with all my self-made photo albums. 😀
