bat caves


Rich, Penny Alison - their boss (Krisna) and I hunt for bats in the bat cave!!! Found quite a few but have to say i'm not sure we would have been allowed down into the caves if they were in the UK...at least not without hard hats, proper torches and maybe a bit of a path through the caves!!! But it was good fun!!!
