Travel Time: My Historical Trip to Corregidor

Happiness…………….

Just as I promise myself, I have been travelling for quite some time now. I started my journey this January with Cebu, in time for the Sinulog, then there’s Baguio, Davao and now Corregidor

It was actually my second time to visit Corregidor by I was busy with the day’s event that I didn’t have time to go around and so I promise myself that I would return someday
And that day happen

I was actually late but thankful that they understand my situation and waited for me (Don’t try to follow my example for they would definitely leave you) since there was a lot of detouring that happen on my way because of the fun run.


Well, enough of that and come with me as I tour Corregidor

Bird watching has now been added as a worthwhile activity in the island. Commune with nature and be one to spot what could be migratory or resident birds of the island.

Rock Balancing
Corregidor, also known as the "Rock" boasts of unique rocks called "bloodstones". These rocks have been aptly called so because they are white in color with nice splatters of red. Rock balancing is an ephemeral art (short-lived art masterpieces) which has recently been introduced in the island. This is a nature activity which aims to boost eco-tourism and build awareness on nature conservancy. Rock balancing is often linked to photography and landscape art.
