GLOWWORMS LIGHT UP TOURIST TRAIL

IN a galaxy not so far away lies a magical display of lights that could be the latest image from NASA. However this natural wonder is in fact on planet earth inside of a grotto containing hundreds of thousands of Glowworms. Tourists are dazzled as they sail through the world's only cave that is filled with the incandescent insects. These amazing images are from the Waitomo Caves in New Zealand, a unique location formed from 30 million years of volcano activity.
