FortSan.2007.178b.jpg

Fort Santiago, Intramuros, Manila

Eeep! The Japs have returned ...! :-O (... as nice, well-behaved tourists, that is!) :-)

At the Memorial Cross that "marks the common grave of approximately 600 bodies of guerillas and civilians found inside the
powder magazine of Baluarte de Sta. Barbara after WW II." Could my grandfather have been one of them?

As I was taking some random shots, some of them (the nice tourists, NOT the dead guerillas!) kept following me,
enthusiastically exclaiming among themselves "Nikon! Nikon!" while I explained back "No! Sony! Sony! Veeeery good camera!".
I'd never thought my precious Sony DSC-R1 would ever be a tourist attraction .. er, I mean distraction! :-)
