Wind Cave, 바람의 동굴...
여러가지 투어 코스가 있는데 우리는 중간 레벨까지 가는
Natural Entrance Cave Tour를 했습니다.
17세 이상은 $9.00, 6-16세는 $4.50, 5살 이하는 무료이니 참고하세요.
동굴의 중간 레벨은 boxwork가 풍부한 곳으로 걸어서 내려갔다가 올라올때는 엘리베이터를 이용합니다.
투어 시간은 약 1시간 15분 정도이며 300 계단 정도를 걷게 됩니다.
동굴 온도는 11도 정도되니 얇은 자켓 정도는 준비하시는게 좋으며 신발은 운동화를 신으시는게 좋습니다.
"Fire can burn, bit it cannot move.
Wind can move, but it cannot burn.
But if fire and wind combine, they can both burn and move.
In this respect fire is like knowledge and wind is like action"

A red round sculpture named Olas de Viento (Wind Waves) is a painted bronze by Yvonne Domenge from Mexico. The magnificent piece sits overlooking the water in Steveston, BC at Garry Point.
Dress warm and be prepared to be entertained by a sky filled with kites if there is any wind when you arrive.
Have the fish and chips for lunch and enjoy your day.

Wind Cave, Wind Cave National Park, South Dakota, USA.
---quotation from en.wikipedia.org:---
Wind Cave National Park is a United States national park 10 miles (16 km) north of the town of Hot Springs in western South Dakota. Established in 1903 by President Theodore Roosevelt, it was the seventh U.S. National Park and the first cave to be designated a national park anywhere in the world. The cave is notable for its displays of the calcite formation known as boxwork. Approximately 95 percent of the world's discovered boxwork formations are found in Wind Cave. Wind Cave is also known for its frostwork. The cave is also considered a three-dimensional maze cave, recognized as the densest (most passage volume per cubic mile) cave system in the world. The cave is currently the sixth-longest in the world with 139.15 miles (223.94 km) of explored cave passageways, with an average of four new miles of cave being discovered each year. Above ground, the park includes the largest remaining natural mixed-grass prairie in the United States.

Over 60 local, interstate and international artists will transform Perth's most popular beach into a stunning sculpture park overlooking the Indian Ocean.
The fifth annual Sculpture by the Sea will be staged on Cottesloe Beach from 5 - 24 March 2009.
So I went and saw the sculptures two weeks ago, but I went on a hot Sunday so the beach was completely packed. And I forgot to take my camera. So a friend and I went down yesterday evening (getting the last hour of sunlight) to get some snaps. I've just uploaded photos of my favourite sculptures. :)
