I was checking Lonely Planet’s site and I came upon this travel blog (http://www.lonelyplanet.com/blogs/travel_blog/2008/01/worlds-most-endangered-locations.html) which was posted last Wednesday, January 09, 2008.

The article raised the alarm about endangered locations in the world.  The top ten are as follos:
1. Dampier Rock Art Complex in Murujuga, Australia
2. Sonargaon-Panam City, Bangladesh
3. Chinguetti Mosque, Mauritania, West Africa
4. Panama Canal, Panama City, Chagres River
5. Dhangkar Gompa, Himachal Pradesh, India
6. Old Damascus, Syria
7. Babylon, Iraq
8. Leh Old Town, Ladakh, India
9. The Coral Triangle, Sulu and Sulawesi Seas
10. Greenland

I entered my personal bluelist in the Lonely Planet Competition (check the link.) It is now officially online, ready to be shared with the world, and you can see it anytime by clicking on this link: Next (tourist) attraction: Slogans, For Real or For Reel?

Hope you can drop by the site and support me on this. :-) Rate it, comment or let me know what you think. There’s a technical booboo there which I hope you wouldn’t mind. The site cut the number of characters in one of the description and I could no longer edit it.

Please, please, and send in your vote. :-) Don’t worry…the vote won’t be for the US presidency. I’m not running for anything but just to be included as a contributor to this great travel book brand.

This is my bluelist (with logosbut you have to check the description at the Lonely Planet site.
