This isn't UK, but it's not an expedition either, so please forgive me for posting it here!
I'm trailing along with some friends on a climbing holiday in Kalymnos.
Since I don't climb, and since Kalymnos is a huge lump of limestone, I'm
hoping to do a little horizontal caving while I'm there. Does anyone
know of any sources of advice, or have any advice they can give? I've
written to the Greek speleological society but had no reply.
What I am particularly concerned about is do I need to get any
permission from anyone, are there any problems with carrying caving gear, lights and batteries on aeroplanes (does anyone get twitchy in
these post 9/11 days?) and do I need a rabies jab? I've caved quite a
lot in the Yorkshire Dales, but this is the first time I've considered it abroad.
