Inside the Cave  
After the swim, we changed and explored the rest of the cave by boat.
The water is so clear that you can see the extension of the formations beneath the surface. It’s not a reflection you can see.
This is one of the more famous of the rock formations inside the abyss. He is known as the guardian of the cave and he sits on a platform with a good view as if he keeps an eye on everything which is happening inside.
Water drips from the stalactites forming stalagmites below. Eventually they will touch and join.

Formations inside the cave.
The ascent out of the abyss was hard work and very slow going.  The thin long ropes have considerable stretch and bounce in them which, for Jeremy, was quite disconcerting.
