Catacombs in Paris!

Mousey Girl · 03-06-2008, 07:06 PM

One of the Hearst Castle tours takes you on what was to have been the main entrance. Any time WRH decided that somthing wasn't done properly he built over it rather than tearing it down.

Awesomeness.

GD - you've done the two mentioned here and I don't think you reacted too badly.

Love this stuff.

Um, some of that Japanese Underground stuff is amazing, and if we could see it in person on our trip, I would die happy.

The Paris catacombs were awesome and totally creepy.

I used to sneak below decks on the Queen Mary with people, often in tuxedoes and gowns on NYE, and we'd play Poseidon Adventure. Sweet.

When I was in Jr. High, we frequented a frelling haunted abandoned beachfront hotel. OMG, I loved that Place and will cherish those youthful explorations into creepiness forever.

Anything local L.A.? When do we start?

So is Urban Spelunking the same as Going Down in the City?

Yeah, I was realizing that. But thinking about being 10 stories below ground...

Spelunking just sounds like a dirty word.
