   What a beautiful texture! Great shots.
   Were you able to swim or go inside the cave, there?

   Not in the cave… There were warning signs about leptospirosis in the seaside cave water.

   But I did follow three boys deep into a finger of the dry cave. It was so fun. The entire floor of the cave is level and easy to crawl along. I think the reason is that the seaside case was a huge gas bubble in the original lava flow, and it happened to bisect sea level near the sea… so over the eons of stormy peak waves, sand washed into the cave and filled its depths, bringing them all up to level ground level. At least, it looked that way to me. =)
