I'm going to go! Oh (^ ^)/
Guys, do you usually exercise?
Surprisingly hard,
it's real.
Let's exercise well.
I'm going to the cave at once
The solutional cave “Gyokusendo Cave” we explore
Long-awaited headlight ON
When I turned on the lights and looked up, I could see about 20,000 Stalactitess named “The Spear Ceiling”
And
Overcoming the railing to Dekoboko Road
Let's go slowly until we get used to it.
Here we observe the pre-learning Speleothem
I was surprised by the growth speed of Speleothem.
The White Speleothem
Let's enjoy nature so that it doesn't get dirty
When the observation session is over, the exploration will become full-scale.
We move into the darkness, as you can see the water level
The deputy captain of the sister-chan explorer told me that when I walked, my feet were difficult to understand due to muddy water, so I said, "Be careful that it is getting deeper here
."
Kid explorer rope tightly and caving
The water temperature was about 18 degrees explorers shouted, "Tsumetai"
It looks like a subguide is shooting
Everyone is posing firmly without losing the cold water
Thank you for your cooperation in wearing a mask
If you feel bad, you can move it every time.
This team is with thumbs up and peace sign
We are glad that you are enjoying our guide.
The middle is hollow and has a straw-like shape
"Straw Soda straws"
From now on, we will continue to move the middle backwards and move four crawlings.
This attitude even for children explorers
Adults are more difficult.
If you cross this low ceiling zone, we will take a break.
Take another step and do your best
Everyone can afford it~
I had a great breath.
An explorer who has finally come out of a low ceiling
Nice caving
Rest time around a little past in the middle

It looks like a broken Speleothem product introduction
This is a world of 40 meters underground
After a break, I experienced the original appearance of the cave.
Nature is amazing, isn't it?
Only the explorers who participated.
Oh!
You've also found a large conjintened shrimp here.
Let's do our best in the second half of the game.

If you cross this low ceiling, you can stretch your back and proceed, so you can step on another step.
One of the explorers was colliding with the head and Speleothem.
Helmet made a pretty loud noise, important
There are "Straw Soda straws" and "Stalagmites" that will be connected in a few years.
Before the explorers look at it . . . .
Speleothem hanging from the ceiling
There was a lot of straw Soda straws
Straw Soda straws grew over 300 to 400 years
It was pure white and beautiful.
The exploration is finally final.
If you go down a narrow road to the left and right, the exit is about to come.
Let's explore without worrying until the end
There is a white Speleothem called "Micro Goul" on the wall.
Let's wash your gloves so that you can touch them.
As you can see, it is narrow, dark, and part deep.
Deputy Commander, did you find something?
Is it a baby of Conjintenaga shrimp
Commemorative photo with the last water at a deep point
I'm sorry that the lens of the camera got wet and it's not perfect.
I'm photographing an explorer.
He was soaked deep in response to my request
Thank you very much.
The exit is soon, if you are lucky, you may be able to meet Okinawa least horseshoe bat.
“Okinawa least horseshoe bat taught each other and explorers.
I've just met you today, but I'm totally a friend
Okinawa least horseshoe bat flying in luck
I also met Okinawa least horseshoe bat, who is resting on the ceiling
Something, face, scary ww
