In shake hole, November 4th.

Well, that's about the gist of it.

Does anyone have any experience of caving in Germany? I've been invited over to the Nuremberg area by noncavers and they'd like to go do a family type trip or two. Is there any guidebooks for the area or any access issues I'll need to be aware of there?
