Okinawa with good weather today
Okinawa World “2022 Explore the Cave in the Southern Island”
There were hot explorers here today.
Replaced with exploration clothes and helmets are also installed
They also take precautions seriously.
Introduction of solutional cave "Gyokusendo Cave" to explore now
Explanation of Speleothem . . .
I introduced the creatures that I might meet.
Okinawa least horseshoe bat, Kuroiwa Kuroiwa's ground gecko, a natural monument of the prefecture
I wish I could meet you~
I'd like to meet giant gees~www
And commemorative photo before departure
I'm going to go! Oh (`-') No
Guys, do you usually exercise?
Let's exercise well.
During the exploration, there is also a middle hip movement or four crawling movement.
Using a signboard, "Get over the railing here. . . . .
Go here. . . .
Turn on the headlights you are waiting for.
The explorers stare at around 20,000 Stalactitess hanging from the ceiling.
The Spear Ceiling, right?
The sightseeing cave is finished soon
I'll go through the dekoboko road over the railing.
It's hard to understand in the photo, but it shines in gold and silver
It was a very beautiful ceiling.
The unpaved natural cave is scaffolding,
The rocks of Gragra, the muddy water, the depth is unknown
So I go slowly and slowly without panic.
Observation meeting in front of Speleothem who learned on the ground in advance
Do you remember the name of Speleothem?
Stalactites. 。 。 。 。 。
And you were surprised at the speed of growth in Speleothem.
Well, let's go further and further.
As the expedition walks, muddy water makes your feet difficult to understand.
The deputy commander said, "Be 
careful, it's getting deeper here
."
Attention of feet overhead
And if possible, observe the left and right Speleothem.
Well, the exploration so far is the practice level
Finally, a full-fledged cave exploration has begun.
Keep your mind tight and let's go
There are traces of cracks on the ground in the water. . .
This area is without a drop of water until May.
The water level returned due to the rainy season in June and heavy rain
It was cold 
and the joy was echoing.
Children's explorer's neck
Water temperature is about 18 degrees
A full smile even if you wear a mask
I know ~ I can see a smile~
Thank you for your cooperation in wearing a mask.
If you have difficulty breathing, you can move it properly.
Boy explorer. . . . . wet too much
I swam
But with a smile, high cheese
This team, each pose is decided regardless of cold water.
Then we move on in the middle,
Sometimes they crawl four and move
Tall people are hard.
In such a case, a child explorer is advantageous
Everyone is soaked ww
The ceiling will be lower.
Let's keep working hard
Adult explorer good luck
Low ceiling zone
The sound and laughter in Speleothem echoes in the cave
It's a great sense of exploration.
If you get over here, it's a little break time.
Everyone worked hard at the low ceiling.
Let's take a break here.
Commemorative photo with broken Speleothem
Commemorative photo in the world of 40 meters underground
A commemorative photo was taken around half of the entire expedition.
Everyone seems to be having fun
We are also pleased with our guide.
This is a world of 40 meters underground
I had a dark experience after a break.
I turned off all the lights and experienced the original cave.
The sound of the drop was also mysterious.
Let's do our best in the second half of the game.
I'll be careful not to hit my head.
A serious look of a child explorer
I'm getting used to it and getting more fun.
Where the ceiling is low is the last.
In the future, even adults can stretch their backs and walk where they can walk.
Let's step further and do our best
The straw Soda straws and Stalagmites on the right will be connected in another 1-2 years.
There were various forms of Speleothem
I can't wait to see
In front of the explorer
Speleothem hanging from the ceiling
Lots of Stalactites babies, straw Soda straws
Below is a rock with many fine Stalactites . . .
The true nature of this rock is the secret of only the explorers who participated
Expedition and Final Battle
The left and right walls cross the continuous pool of Speleothem
Speleothem like Tanada in rice fields
Microgool was pure white and beautiful.
I'm going through the darkness of this narrow rocky place . . .
There was such a giza Speleothem too.
Commemorative photo with the last water at a deep point
The cold water is finally here.
I tried hard to immerse myself in my neck.
Commemorative photo for this team
I also had a cold water challenge ww
A child explorer (D).
Almost a head ww
Thank you very much for the peace sign.
And cold water challenge
The ground is hot and humid, so let's keep it cool now.
There is a residence in Okinawa least horseshoe bat, so let's move quietly
Luckily I met a lot of Okinawa least horseshoe bat
There were Okinawa least horseshoe bats flying around, and some children resting on the ceiling.
Kuroiwa Kuroiwa's ground gecko isn't there?
Why are you looking for it?
I was at my feet with my eyes.
Kuroiwa Kuroiwa's ground gecko, a natural monument in Okinawa Prefecture
If you climb this ladder, the exit is right there.
I saw the light on the earth.
Commemorative photo with all the friends who worked hard last time
With the Deputy Commander at the forefront, all the members called out and confirmed their safety.
I was able to escape safely from the cave.
When you go out to the outside world, the expedition clothes become heavy, including water, fatigue of exploration,
It is over 30 degrees, hot and humid, and also doubles fatigue on the stairs.
It was fun and I heard a little.
Thank you very much for our guide.
