i can feel the festive mood in Naga City now. tomorrow is the grand celebration of the tercentenary of the devotion to our lady of peñafrancia - patroness of bicolandia and i'm very excited about that. hmm. just like what i have mentioned in my fb status, the show of the devotion of the bicolanos to our lady never failed to give me goosebumps. the sabay-sabay na pagwagagway ng puting panyo to the shouting of viva in chorus are among things that makes the peñafrancia experience unique as if it makes the sea of people one no matter what color he is or from what province or town he came from. it is an experience like no other. this tercentenary celebration is a must attend celebration for this is history. i am pretty sure that i will not be around anymore after a century where the bicolanos would celebrate Ina's 400 years. nonetheless, this tercentenary celebration is a testament of Bicolanos strong faith in God and a way of thanking the Lord for his blessings. This devotion is a gift we received and is a gift we must share.
VIVA LA VIRGEN! VIVA EL DIVINO ROSTRO!
