Day 23: Tucson, Arizona

Spent the day exploring the fantastic caves at Kartchner Caverns State Park, near Benson, Arizona.  Very informative guided tour into a live cave; with developing stalactites & stalagmites, including one of the world's longest "soda straws", at 21 feet long!  Gave me a new appreciation for caves, caving and park rangers!
Then dinner in Tubac, a charming village full of art & history, just a few miles from Mexico.  Went through a border check point and was very appreciative for our American-looking faces!
