First time Hirosi Clab hiking to the Cave
This time was lead by Dr.Chu, sir Breafly, and instructor Dinny. Our destination in this time was a cave in western of Muak Lek town, behind Hirosi hill. Distance from our campus/dorm to the cave is about 6 km, by car probably about 45 minutes. This is the first time for me to hiking to this cave, so at that time I was just keep quiet and followed the leaders. We as members of CNL Hirosi APIU-Thailand very proud that at that day we had two observers which joined with us to hiking together. They are a couple from US.

New members and two observers |
In addition, we also had new members where they are students from APIU which they also just joined with us on Hirosi Club. They are from different country like Cambodia, China and Malaysia. At that day we were 23 people joined with us to hiking. We went hiking on Saturday after finished worship at 12.30 p.m.

Dr. Chu and 2 friends |
About 30 minutes we had a lunch, after that went to dorm to change clothes, prepare our needs and gathered back in front of cafeteria on 2.00. p.m. Dr. Chu prayed for us, after that 20 people fit in the car and 3 people use motor bike. We arrived there the clock already 2.50 p.m., so we quickly parked the car and motor bike in parking zone. Some of us walk ahead until in front of the group of bamboo where the place to take rest to waited Dr. Chu's group which they went to ask for flashlight from the society who live around there. They borrowed 3 flashlights to use inside the cave because it was very dark inside the cave.

Started climb the hill to the cave |
We climb the hill around 1 km and we reach the gate of the cave. Before we got in the cave, first we share the candle to everybody who didn't have the flashlight. After that, Dr.Chu and Instructor Dinny leads us to go inside the cave. Waoo,,, very surprise when we entered in the cave. On first place looked like a big living room because it was too spacious. In the some of the corner which very slick wall, I saw the place looked like closets which very thin and very long until the roof of the cave in each corner of the wall. I looked the whole wall of the cave it was very nice because it was look like designed by a professional architect. Lot things that very interesting on whole the wall so everybody wanted to take picture in every place.
We stepped from that room to another room. Before we enter the back room, in the middle between two rooms there was stood some big pole through the ceiling of the cave so we take some picture there. After we passed that place, we entered to the back room where this room is very big and spacious too like the first room. But this room looked like a special room because this room has a specificity like has two big stone has been sat in the middle of the room and in addition, there is one small room in the middle of the cave which is very deep and very narrow for entrance to the inside.

First room inside the cave |
While Dr. Chu and other friends were waiting us in the big room of the cave, Sir Brefly and Pr.Michael leads us to go inside to the those narrow room.
 |
Bungsu Lidya was climbing up the narrow cave |
At that time, while we were climbing down to the narrow way inside the cave about 20 meters, suddenly Sir Brefly got an accident. Because the road is very narrow, so we had to bow when we enter the inside that place. That's why when Sir Brefly raised his head just little bit but he bumped to the stone that is very sharp. This accident made his head covered by the blood because he bumped the stone too hard so all of us stop to climb down the cave and we came back to the big room where Dr. Chu's group while waiting us.
 |
Second room |
We came out of the cave in back gate and we gathered in front of the gate, after that we climbed down the hill to the parking zone where the place we parked the car and motor bikes. When we arrived back to the parking zone, the society who live there they prepared cold water for us to drink. After we took a rest, we invite the people around there to take some picture together with them. We left that place around 05:15 p.m. and arrived in Campus/dorm about 05:40p.m.
