The next generation of urban explorer? May 2013

[The Urban Adventurer]

Been asked to post this by my ten year old daughter…she’s a fan of this site and the crazy antics us exploring folk get up to!

She thinks “Ninja Kitten†has the best name ! sorry guys !

They are doing World War II at school this term and she wanted to do a “then and now†of sites around Dover..well it’s not difficult finding stuff round these parts !

There is a famous pic here of Lydden Spout (2nd pic down) http://www.subbrit.org.uk/sb-sites/sites/l/lydden_spout_battery/index.shtml and she wanted to try and replicate the pic..

Being above ground was not good enough and insisted that we head underground to get some shots for her project.

She’s now asked for a DSLR and tripod for her birthday as apparently the compact point and shoot just is not good enough…kids !

(Mods..if you don’t think this is in keeping with the site then please feel free to delete)

This is excellent mate, she looks well into it! The next gen indeed Reminds me of my 11 year old niece. She did her first splore last year - a mine control tower. I couldn't keep up! Still can't. Welcome to ninja school.

No sure about the wellies though
