Just wanted to post this link -
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/07/photogalleries/worlds-biggest-cave-pictures/index.html
How long until the Vietnamese, Vietnamese this place - which right now has to be own of the most spectacular places on earth.
Can't wait to hear a tour guide tell me that during the American War the NVA and Viet Cong used the place as a regular hide-out - they just forgot to tell the world.
