Zf080

Zf080. From the patio type dining area of the former Corregidor Inn I still could enjoy one more time the grand view of the North Channel entrance of Manila Bay. I always enjoy this view and then remember the tragic Battle of Bataan. I particular remember the Dog fight of the 9th Feb 1942 between an American and a Japanese Pilot that caused both pilots to crash on Tarak Ridge which is located about center in this picture on top of the Mount Mariveles peaks.

Zf079

Zf079. From the patio type dining area of the former Corregidor Inn I still could enjoy one more time the grand view of the south mouth opening/entrance of Manila Bay and see two of the other three Islands/Forts; we see Fort Drum left and Fort Frank at right.

Zf078

Zf078. Because of the huge Sun Cruise’s renovation of the Corregidor Inn, this new passage to the patio type dining area cannot be locked up right now. That battery provides one of two lonely lights at night for the Corregidor Inn.

Zf076

Zf076. The Corregidor Inn is still here although it is closed. This is the main entrance to the Inn/Hotel.

Zf075

Zf075. I had to have a look at the shortcut path to the former MacArthur Café which is still in operation with a slightly different name and a different Management. One can still walk it but there is some rubbish on the way, that building was the former Sun Cruises Recreation Building but was used for many other purposes.

Zf074

Zf074. I’m walking, on my way to the former Sun Cruises Hotel, the Corregidor Inn; left is the former Sun Cruises Inn Generator Building. It stands now empty and closed; it always provided reliable power supply. CFI is running a generator in the former Fort Mills Power Building but is running the power only from about 6 pm to 6am each day. Next to the generator building we see the shortcut path to the former MacArthur Café which is still in operation with a slightly different name and a different Management.

Zf073

Zf073. I’m walking, on my way to the former Sun Cruises Hotel, the Corregidor Inn; right is the former Sun Cruises Inn Staff Building. It stands now empty and closed.

Zf064

Zf064. This bomb proof Magazine Bldg.182; I call it Magazine #7, and it is a massive building. It stands in a row of 8 Magazine/Ordinance buildings on Morrison Hill, in Fort Mills on Corregidor Island. There is one other massive sister magazine next to the rail line to Battery Cheney. But building 183, the magazine I call #8 is completely gone. The area is level and certainly could have housed a large building but if it was there it left no trace.

Zf063

Zf063. This is the west end of the bomb proof Magazine Bldg.182; I call it Magazine #7 in a row of 8 Magazine/Ordinance buildings on Morrison Hill, in Fort Mills on Corregidor Island.
