Day 11: Underground River - the Real Bat Cave

We went to the Underground River - one of the new 7 Wonders of Nature. It is about 2 hours drive from our hotel along winding roads. If you are not used to long winding rides, take something to help you. The ride is worth it though.

Days 9 and 10: Slow Day and off to Palawan

After the flood, things settled down. I was able to go to mass. It turns out the destruction from the rain was greater than expected. Even after the rains have stopped, a lot of towns are still underwater. One thing that has come out of this disaster is the generosity of people. You hear of people who go out of their way to help others. You hear of cops and military - where these are stereotyped as corrupt - staking their lives to help others. Lord, bless this land. Bless the people and the leaders.
