We left Clovis reasonably early, and headed south to Roswell. Roswell was quite a big town, and they did have some quirky things. Like this at KFC.
And all the lamp posts were like this.
We went the International UFO Museum and Research Centre. They had lots of displays, and it was actually quite factual, as well as being fun.
The we headed further south, to Carlsbad Caverns. We went down 750ft (about 250m) down in an elevator to these enormous beautiful caves. They had pathways set out and we walked a big loop around these caves. There were other guided tours you could do too, but some of them were pretty hard out.
This photo makes it looked a bit closed in, but they were actually really enormouse caves. Not a glow worm in site though.
Then we had a 3 hour drive through the desert. We had the top down, but had the air-con on our feet. The temperature topped out at 106 degrees F (just a touch over 40 degrees C) at 5pm. Needless to say we really enjoyed a dip in the pool when we got to our motel.
