This weekend Tim and I were blessed to be able to go to Homun where we saw an awesome cenote (underground lake) and a other-world cave!
The cenote was awesome, filled with stalagtights and stalagmites.
At some points the water was only chest deep, but then would suddenly drop off and go to 150ft dept!
All the cenotes in the Yucatan are connected through underground rivers, so scuba divers dive down into those 150 deep places looking for the underground rivers. Already thousands of cenotes are known in Yucatan, but it is suspected that hundreds of thousands more are yet to be discovered.
Then we went out to lunch before heading to the cave. The cave opening is in a family's backyard property. So we just drove up, knocked on the door, paid $0.75 each to enter.
It was an other-world type of experience!
There were bats flying everywhere. At one point we had to squeeze through a 3foot x 3 foot hole.
We also came across a cenote deep within the cave.
Overall, it was a wonderful trip and we had a great time getting to know Fernando better! He is a wonderful christian man with a very interesting story that we are slowly learning about.
School skill continues to be very difficult and mentally and emotionally trying. Please pray for patiences, energy, and endurance! Thanks!
that's crazy that scuba divers dive down so deep! that would be terrifying! i love you guys and will continue to pray for you both.
