Sinulog Festival 2009

I just came back from Cebu today to witness the Sinulog Festival 2009. It is an annual celebration in honor of the child Jesus or Sto. Niño. My friends from office had a quick weekend getaway this week at this beautiful provincial islands of Cebu.


Saturday, prior to the festival, we went out for some island hopping. We visited different islands like Butete, Pandanon, etc. in an afternoon under an overcasted sun but we sure had fun!


The highlight of the festival is the street dancing and parade of different groups, showcasing Sto. Niño. It's definitely non-stop dancing, music and fun! Shown here is me in the middle of a group who are body-painted with blue. Seems I blend in perfectly!
