Alice- Absolutely, I especially love these sorts of one-man mission works of art. A real tangible feat of endurance and will that cannot fail to impress.

Houma- Hi there, and thanks for commenting on my site! The courage required for this one was less about delving into the dark and more about climbing the fence and risking being caught while going in. Once inside it was very calm, and for the most part quite well lit. Strawberry farm looks like it`s gone though.

David- Right, and all the more so because many of the hand-carved tunnels were quite short, and we had to duck through them at times. Whether they were wide enough for burly dwarves to pass through though, I don’t know.

Scott- Cheers, and I was really glad you could come for our last haikyo with Mike.

Jason- Yeah I occasionally hear of abandonments in Florida that would be good- shut down airfields, beached ships, stuff like that. I think there’s got to be lots. Probably out in the Everglades many old hunting cabins and the like.

Shii- Thanks, I’ll take it . For those that don’t know- it means ‘King of the Cave’. Wikipedia tells me it was the name of a ‘Count of Monte Cristo’ manga.

Mathieu- Thanks, I only wish I’d made the effort to change lens and get a better shot of the cricket. It was so dusty in there though I didn’t dare take my camera apart for it.

Florian- I know, my friends are sick of hearing me say- ‘ok, I think I’m done with haikyo now’. As long as there’s new stuff to see though, I guess I’ll seek it out. As for coming to Kanto- we should do an exchange: I’ll connect you with Kanto locations if you give up the goods on Kansai. Deal?
