So okay, this is way long overdue post. 3 years late to be exact. Sorry na, may energy gap lang... Seriously, I miss blogging. Sharing my travel adventures back in the Philippines (UAE-based na po ako ). I was so busy being an  adult, that's why. This trip happened 3 years ago so here's me hoping to make this post as helpful and good read as possible. The Sinulog Grand Street Parade (Day 2) The first day of Sinulog Festival is celebrated through the Solemn Foot Procession where devotees dance in honor of Sto. Niño. I had a fair glimpse of how many people will be going to the streets come the grand street parade set to happen the next day. After taking our breakfast, we hurriedly strolled Osmeña street as some participants were already there. Cebu's Sinulog Grand Street Parade must probably be the country's longest parade time, it starts in the morning and ends at night! Despite the sweet smiles, I can imagine the exhaustion of the performe...

Despite the occasional drizzles, I appreciate the cool Cebu Amihan breeze as I began walking along Osmena Blvd with ate Yan that afternoon of January 18. The Philippines for the past few days has been experiencing a lot cooler temperature than normal, and we Filipinos just gladly embrace it, after all, it's a weekend to celebrate. It’s the day the Solemn Foot Procession is happening and I can’t wait to experience this much-loved parade.  the crowd during the Solemn Foot Procession as seen from Robinsons Fuente kids wearing Sto Nino outfits From the streets, I can see locals with their families, patiently waiting for the arrival of the black image of Sto Nino. People wearing hats, cute kids donning their Sto. Nino costumes and tourists flaunting their ‘I Love Cebu’ shirts, all while chanting Viva Pit Senyor. There are cameras everywhere, helicopters flying above for like every 10 minutes. Surely, this is Philippine's grandest fiesta celebration.
