| All in our gear... after a training run heading out to the abseil into the Lost World Cave.... | ||
Click and Jump

||
| So... you hook onto the rope and then slowly glide down.... Not Ninja style, doing the 120 meters in 3 seconds though.... | ||

| 120 meters below you can see the red helmets of a group that headed down there before us.... | ||

| Looking out into the cave... All I thought about was that I should have used either the film camera or just the 17mmx1.7 on the D30.... 28mmx1.7 was still too narrow to show the entire scope and effect of the cave.... | ||
Halfway there....

Danger!

||
| Sara got her hair stuck in the abseil device... But no worries, no emergency hair cut is needed... Our guide lifted her up and slowly detangled her hair.... | ||

||
| Everyone gets freaked out by the picture on the right as I look like some weird condom-headed cartoon character... But turn the light on and see how it came to be.... | ||
Drop

||
| On the top you see the platform where we left... And in the middle you see the group dangling in there after us... The white spots are their boots... | ||
Back out in the Sun!

| Our group finally out there again, helmets off... Great experience! | ||
