124 meters of tunnel.....nice and cool after being out in the bright sunlight.
The drop in temperature helps me be patient.
I know a cold beer awaits when we get to the top!

The inside of the elevator is polished brass!

Goes nicely with the polished marble walls.

It's closing time.

Even with plenty of daylight left, when you're one of the last souls on the mountain, a lonely eerie feeling starts to overcome you.
