Hello Everyone!
Sharing this first time experience of mine to actually join the fluvial parade in the water on my own city- Cebu City Philippinesas we celebrate the Sinulog Festival. On the previous years, I am only one of the crowd witnessing the goosebumping tradition in the bay of Cebu.
Sinulog Festival is a celebration in Cebu to honor the holy child- Snr. Sto. Niño. As a catholic and a devotee, we begin the feast on a fluvial parade, aside from the 9-days novena-mass, commemorating the arrival of Christianity of the Cebuanos (people of Cebu) when a relic of the holy child was found in a shore of Cebu.
Then, a parade on the street and holy masses then follows on the succeeding day, and of course, the party on the streets. Sinulog is one of the grandest and very-known festival out of the many festivals in the Philippines.
The experience was fun and fulfilling specially when I got to tried it on a speedboat with my cousin and the family of her husband. I have come to see the beauty of Cebu in the waters, we were sailing through the sea of Talisay City down to SRP and to the Piers. The seawater was just so calm and pretty that morning, complimenting well with the sunrise and the CCLEX bridge.
