heed my words and look where you're going! ( less you tripped-up by your own perception )
This week I went on a ,bona-fide, full-on proper mini adventure. Saw something I’d not seen before. . …....and I lived to tell the tale....YEAHH!
Mmmmmm....
…..... OK maybe that’s selling it a bit large …. but it was a big deal for me cos I’m unfit and no spring chicken.
In the middle of the image off in the distant …...can you see there’s a hole half way up the white cliff-face.....?....yes?......good ! Well that’s where I was heading .
Its a lot higher and further away that it looks, its actually the other side deep gorge . Thankfully when you do make it to the bottom of the cliffs ,there’s a long rope you can use to help you climb up to the cave entrance...... Even so, it took ,every last bit of my strength ,hauling myself up into the cave. … and a good 20 mins face down on the cave floor recovering ,before I stopped shaking enough to stand up, look around and start exploring .
I saw a BAT !!!... A real live hanging from the ceiling, vampire style ,just like in the movies BAT!!( seen loads out on the wing... but never seen one doing the whole “lost Boys” sleeping thingy ) it was awesome, and totally worth my exhaustion.
Going back down is always worse than climbing up, not so tiring but much scarier ...you get to see the drop! lol building up my courage ready for the descent ,I decided to try and take a photo (even though it was a bit dark ) wanted proof that I had actually made it.
**********************************
And here it is!!
you are in the cave with me looking out at the very same cave . this is two photos of the same cave from both sides of the gorge....... one looking out...... one looking in . All you could actually see from the cave (without looking down whooow dizzy one) was sky .
