As the sirens starts to sound, the Battery Guns prepare themselves for the incoming invaders. The thundering sound of the guns shook the entire island & sprayed it's firepower unto the enemy. Sharpnel damaged concrete walls lay witness to the bombs dropped by the enemy in their desperate attempt to capture corregidor within 50 days... the island was able to fend off the enemy for 6 months before finally surrendering due to lack of support from its Allies. It would later be regained as per the promise held by Mac Arthur that "He Shall Return!"

hahaha... nung huli kong uwi ng pinas. wala masyadong tourist kasi inaantay ko silang umalis sa view :) pero madami kami nyan... around 8 mini buses are roving on the same day... mga 15+ ata kami per bus. Each bus has an english speaking tour guide.
