HISTORY REVISITED

Working on V-day!

Nowhere to sit and work a little, my cuz and i decided to park and have some coffee inside Fort Santiago in Intramuros. It has been like decades since i last set foot on this place. Remembering it to be during my elementary days. Thanks for keeping this historical place for the future generation. I wanted my niece and nephew to see this place, well again, if they ever did during one of their field trips. I want them to know more about their country's history.

As i can recall, these photo below were cells used to exhibit vintage and armored cars during our days that is, but then in the spanish time, they were used as prison cells, or were they, let me go read my history book.

But, anyways, here are some shots by the park entrance, the area before the main gate of Fort Santiago...

I wish to post more photos of the place. Maybe when i get back there with the kids.

Our rest of the afternoon were spent working. Then after, early dinner at Savory, Binondo. I enjoyed their fried chicken and chopsuey toppings. The place also brought back memories of childhood.
