Okinawa World, "2022 Explore the Cave in the Southern Island"
This summer is the 37th year since it started in 1986.
A hot explorer came together today.
Yes, all of you here
Introducing the Gyokusendo Cave that I'm exploring now, and the creatures I might meet.
I have explained the precautions for exploration.
Thank you very much for listening to everyone.

I'm going! Oh (^^)/
What we explore is Gyokusendo Cave
"I'm sorry,", isn't ww "Gyokusendo" ww
A child explorer who is going on by himself or herself
The average in Gyokusendo Cave is 21 degrees throughout the year.
It was a little chilly, wasn't it?
The long-awaited headlight ON
The explorer looks at about 20,000 Stalactitess hanging from the ceiling.
It's a place named The Spear Ceiling
From the tourist cave, go over the railing and go to the Dekoboko Road.
When I looked up at the ceiling, it glowed golden silver and it was very beautiful.
Let's go slowly and slowly at first
Some explorers were hitting helmets quickly.
The white dot in the photo is water vapor, isn't it?
It's a very humid place.
Here I observed the pre-trained Speleothem.
We observed Stalactites, straw Soda straws, Columns, Stalagmites, etc.
I was surprised at the growth speed of Speleothem and Straw Soda straws.
In Okinawa Prefecture, it grows at three times faster than the mainland.
Well, the exploration so far is a practice ('ω')
It's finally a full-fledged cave exploration.
Delicate straw Soda straws
Everyone said, "I'm getting deeper here ~" "There is a step ~"
We went together with each other.
In this area, cold water is attacking the neck.
The water temperature is about 18 degrees Celsius.
We were pleased with "Yabai" and "Cold ~" ww

Thank you for your wonderful smile.
I'm excited with a smile and a guts pose
This team is also very excited.
We are happy to see you enjoy it.
Zones with low ceilings even for children explorers
I think a tall adult is very hard.
With a mammy, I'd like an explorer
A boy explorer who takes pictures ww is a good friend
Well, once again challenge where the ceiling is low
If the mask seems to be painful, you can shift it.
Don't overdo it.
Everyone can afford it v(^^)
If you pass through the low ceiling, you will have a break time.
(*’ω’*)
The boy, I found something like Okinawa least horseshoe bat
I took a break just a little past the middle.
There are many breathtaking explorers
For each team
Commemorative photo with the broken Speleothem
You have a big Speleothem on the right.
It's quite heavy.
The Nyan team also coolly took a commemorative photo
The smile is dazzling
This is a world of 40 meters underground.
After a break, we had you experience the original appearance of the cave.
Nature is amazing.
Yeah
Let's do our best in the second half of the game while taking a break (`-')
There were a lot of Speleothem along the way.
If you couldn't afford to see Speleothem, look back on this blog.
Where the explorers look at
Speleothem hanging from the ceiling
Stalactites's baby, Straw Soda straws.
It was a straw Soda straws that grew over 300 to 400 years.
The exploration is finally the final match
Follow a narrow road to the left and right, and a pure white Speleothem appears on the wall, so let's wash your gloves so that you can touch it.
I'm going over a few pools in this narrow rocky area, Speleothem.
The waves of Speleothem like Tanada in a rice field
You had a microgour, didn't you?
Commemorative photo at the last rimstone pool with deep water
With Peace Sign and Sam's Up
The cold water cooled down here at the end. Ww is it like a monk?

Coolly Sam's Up
I'm photographing how they are sinking each other.
I think it's fun.
Adults return to childhood Explore the Cave in the Southern Island

Psychoic expression ww
This is today's Smile Grand Prize.
Thank you very much.
There is a residence in Okinawa least horseshoe bat, so let's move quietly.
All explorers find Okinawa least horseshoe bat
Luckily, I met Okinawa least horseshoe bat (*'ω'*)
I was resting from the ceiling
There was also Kamadoma.
It's also called a lavatory, a friend of crickets.
Okinawa least horseshoe bat is determined by the Ministry of the Environment.
5th from the top in the category (rank) of endangered species.
Classified as Endangered IBs (EN)
There is a high risk of extinction in the wild in the near future.
When you climb the ladder, the exit is right there.
Finally, take a commemorative photo with all the friends who worked hard
Exploring the cave, I did my best (`-')
A prisoner-like shot ww
I was able to escape from the cave safely
It's Brewere, but it's fun.
Thank you very much for your participation.
Teamwork is wonderful, and there are only bright and fun people.
Our guide also enjoyed it.
The information was from Horiuchi.
Thank you very much.
