Guácharo Cave, Caripe, Venezuela

While several of the group are out horse riding in Caripe, the rest of us play challenging card games such as Go Fish and Crazy Eights.

We're heading for Playa Colorada in Mochima National Park but first stop off at Guácharo cave, named by the Indians for it's unique nocturnal birds. Alfred Hitchcock sent a team to Venezuela to capture the sounds of the cave for his film 'The Birds'.
