LIMA (Perú) Cecilio López-Tercero, who was rescued last Tuesday, September 30, after 12 days down a hole he had been exploring not far from the capital of the country, now lies in the Clínica Angloamericana de San Isidro, in Lima, kept his sense of humour during the enormous effort carried out in order to get him out of there after a 400 metre fall. He is expected to return to Madrid as soon as the doctors say he can travel -- his family and the 60 rescuers and fellow potholers who travelled to Perú to help are eagerly awaiting him. He broke a vertebra during the fall, but other injuries are only minor. Among the things he said was, "See? I told you I could go down further!" Members of his potholing club, called Geoda, said that he had also written a letter 'to the world' about his rescue, thanking them and many others for the effort. Now the club is trying to sort out travel arrangements for them all. (Original source: El Mundo)
