lev and stalactite cave


lev and stalactite cave

In the 60's some workers were blasting into a limestone quarry near Jerusalem and found this massive stalactite cave. It looks like some cross between the hideout of the seven dwarves and an alien civilization; the guide shines his flashlight on various formations that look like wedding cakes, famous politicians, giant's legs etc. It's pretty dramatic, but the most personally dramatic moment for me came right after the guide announced we were sixty meters underground and Lev announced he needed to poop.
