Trippy. Need to go to the website to see the pics. It looks like a movie set, especially the last one with a panaramic shot and a tiny light which is a flashlight.

That is awesome. You gotta love mothernature 
|
Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

Fear not, my friend - Moles can't swim, and even if they could reach us, they still have to make it out of China first. And they eat a lot of strange stuff in China, so peking crispy mole could end up on the menu.

It's not too bad swimming in the river. These guys know what they are doing and will have checked it was safe first and taken proper precautions.
Cave diving, now that is brave.

You're freaked out by the river pic, when there is this little gem a few images down:
The accompanying caption said that the cave floor was 240meters below where she was climbing...
As for me, this cave system is absolutely fascinating, and I hope that more images and such are released. I've always been interested in caves, but sadly being closer in physical fitness to a pork pie and having the courage of a weasel that works in politics have prevented me from ever attempting such adventurous pastimes...
