17 Jun 2010 Arecibo Puerto Rico

Last Day - Driving to North Coast

We rented a car to drive for 2 hours to Arecibo to visit Observatorio de Arecibo

We attended a show in Spanish but with illustration in English

 


Material to built the reflector

Another place we wanted to visit was Parque de las Cavernas del Río Camuy.  However, we arrived later than 11:00am and found it was already full.  Then we just tried again after visiting the Observatory but in vain.

The Río Camuy is the world's third largest underground cave system

It was them - many students entered the site and made it full!  They took a trolleybus that follows a spiraling road down through the jungle into a 200-ft deep sinkhole to Cueva Clara de Empalme (Clear Cave Junction).  There are other 2 cave areas - Tres Pueblos sink-hole and Cueva Catedral (Cathedral Cave)

Finally, I could only ended the trip with a coconut ice-drink
