SINULOG 2009


See how crowded this street during Sinulog. Should you have an extra t-shirts to avoid self discomfort of wet shirt due perspiration. Be watchful of your belongings and be aware of the pickpockets. Daghang maglaroy laroy ani nga time nga mga kiriwan ug kamot.

Since I was in college, we used to celebrate Sinulog through our fund raising henna tattoo with my classmates in architecture and this activity still remains although we're now working in different company.
