I Saw the Sign

We extended our stay in Palawan, coming from a three-day stay at Dos Palmas, for a day and a half more because we wanted to visit the famous St. Paul Underground River, now known as Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. Two hours to three hours of bone-jarring road trip from Puerto Princesa City going to Sabang Beach and then a boat ride going to the undergrond river for about an hour if I remember it right. It was all worth it.

(Nag-extend kami ng stay sa Palawan ng isa at kalahati pang araw para makabisita kami sa St. Paul Underground River. Dalawang hanggang tatlong oras na napakatagtag na lakbayin at mula Puerto Princesa hanggang Sabang Beach at isang oras na boat ride papuntang underground river.)



One of the cave's opening
I was really excited upon seeing the sign board welcoming us to this nature's wonder. It took us 25 minutes to go around the cave. Our tour guide has lots of stories to tell about the shapes of the stalactites and stalagmites. It was fun! Whatever fears I had were gone even if it was really cold, dark and for sure the water was very deep.

(Na-excite talaga ako ng makita ko na ang karatulang nagsasaad na andito na kami sa aming adventure. Dalawamput limang minuto para ikutin ang loob ng kweba at maraming kwento si manong tungkol sa iba't-ibang hugis ng bato. Nakakaaliw kaya mawawala ang kaba mo kahit na malamig at madilim sa loob at siguradong malalim ang tubig.)
