That sure looks like a wild trip through the cave with the glowworms overhead. I've never seen them before. Are they only found in (watery) caves? In the photo with the raft in the scene, the glowworms do make it look exactly like the sky. That's a really great photo!
Hey @free-reign, not only in watery caves but they are very prominent here. They live outside as well as we saw them just off the road as we were walking along at night.
Yea that was a great photo they sent over to us and helps to remember the moments!
Thanks for stopping by 🙂

Epic tale of your encounters on a journey you obviously relished every moment of Nicky.
Real life experiences like this stay with you forever one can never put a price to the knowledge gleaned in travel, no matter what you encounter.
Hey @joanstewart thanks for joining in the adventure! Going back through these pictures and remembering what happened... Actually can't believe how much I did!
Traveling is the best education, prefer this method of learning vs my PhD 😁

i loved the glow worm caves. i've always thought that the one thing schools should change about science is the lack of experience. if kids got out in nature more, they would have much more respect for what it entails.
Absolutely right there - experiences and days out should be more common rather than reading about it in a book. Learning theory is one thing but when you're out there you just get to see and live it and that's where the true learning comes from.

The Dobblers XD HAIL TO THE CHIEF OF THE DOBBLERS o/
Love this post, @nickyhavey ! That whole cave seems absolutely magical and I'm glad that the tour sent over some photos that kind of sort of better than the phone camera's mights.... I would like to visit it one day, for sure !
And great narration, too <3 You're always so personable :D But also informative ! Love that bits about the cannibalistic info of the past tribes.... I'm glad you didn't get eaten... XD
Hahaha thanks for the lovely words man!
Yea those caves really were special. My mouth was just open the whole time in awe (thankfully the water didn't drip into it from the roof lol)!
I appreciate the feedback on the style of writing too! It's just the way I do it, we're all human at the end of the day and I think it can be just a bit robotic when everything is kept so neutral. I loved my travels and I'm going to share the emotions too haha! SO glad I didn't get eaten 🤣
Take it easy brother! 🙏

Hey Nick Cave was a singer in a band in the last century, called The Bad Seeds. World famous rock star.
Hmm, that one must have slipped through the net. Not familiar with the name! 🤔
