from the new 7 wonders website:
The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is located about 50 km north of the city of Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines. It features a limestone karst mountain landscape with an 8.2 km. navigable underground river. A distinguishing feature of the river is that it winds through a cave before flowing directly into the South China Sea. It includes major formations of stalactites and stalagmites, and several large chambers. The lower portion of the river is subject to tidal influences. The underground river is reputed to be the world's longest. At the mouth of the cave, a clear lagoon is framed by ancient trees growing right to the water's edge. Monkeys, large monitor lizards, and squirrels find their niche on the beach near the cave.

since i will see this singular marvel of the world soon enough, i will refrain from opening my well-stocked arsenal of exclamation points and deluging you with the enthusiasm rightfully befitting the opportunity of voting for this wonder. what matters is that you go here -- VOTE FOR PP UNDERGROUND RIVER, vote using all your email addresses if possible (yes, even the ones created way back in high school whose cobwebbed usernames reflect the [uncool] person you once were [or still are]:D) and SPREAD THE WORD to everyone. even or especially to your foreign friends who i'm sure would pour dollars into the country's economy and thus ensure my wages are paid - i mean, help the country - just to see this unmissable national treasure.
so ano pang inaantay mo? boto na! : )
