Re: Sinulog 2009 - Cebu, Philippines
From Wiki: "The Sinulog is an annual festival held on the third Sunday of January in Cebu City, Philippines. The festival honors the child Jesus, known as the Santo Niño (Holy Child), patron of the city of Cebu. It is a dance ritual that commemorates the Cebuano people's pagan origin, and their acceptance of Christianity. The festival features a street parade with participants in bright-colored costumes dancing to the rhythm of drums, trumpets, and native gongs. Smaller versions of the festival are held in various parts of the province, also to celebrate, and honor the Santo Niño. There is also a "Sinulog sa Kabataan", performed by the youths of Cebu a week before the grand parade." There's alot of Christian festivities in the Philippines and "Sinulog" is one of those. Similar to the "Mardi Gras" in Europe and the "Chingay" parade here. ... how I missed my country.
