The Kasadyaan and Sangyaw Festival are the highlights of  The celebration held on two different dates. The Kasadyaan or the famously known as “The Pintados Festival” will be held tomorrow, Wednesday, 27th of June 2012; while the Sangyaw Festival (Parade of Lights) will be on the 29th.

As of the moment, everything is all set, and yes, everyone is excited for the two main events. And of course, there are a lot of expected visitors and special guests invited to witness the event. Most are Politicians, VIP’S and of course Celebrities.

I can tell that I’m a little bit excited of what will happen, and I have some of these expectations since I wanted to be surprised. 😀 And by the way, I am expecting a lot more celebrities and a lot more colorful and mind blowing floats. But, most of all; Let us not forget about the MAIN REASON why we celebrate this festivity. Be it grand or spectacular it wouldn’t be prestigious and successful without Our Beloved Sr. Sto. Nino who is the source of all these wonderful things. We do this as a sign of appreciation, honor, gratitude and of our utmost Love for our Mahal nga Patrona (Patron Saint) ; Sr. Sto. Nino.

 A beautiful shade of sunshine makes up a beautiful day. 🙂 There’s this Month of December 2011 when I first set my eyes on this Marvelous view. This was in Tagaytay and this was taken by a very good friend of mine, Ms. Filamor who happens to be with me during this wonderful opportunity like no other.

Waking up every morning and seeing a Scenic view as beautiful as this is indeed a perfect go signal to start a wonderful morning with a smile, full of optimism and positive vibes. I remember that brilliant 6:30 a.m. when the sun just set and of course I woke up smiling filled with excitement in me because we were going to some of the places in Tagaytay for us to see it’s splendor. I was like, Wow! I’ve never been here before.. and like, before, I just see these places on tv and right now I’m finally here. 😀  That morning was one of the most unforgettable mornings of a first-time traveler in Tagaytay, and of course I’m hoping it won’t be the last. Still looking  forward to being in the same place again, and a much more terrific morning. So If you feel lazy getting up from bed, just keep with you that feeling and excitement that it seems as if this wonderful photograph of a beautiful morning is always on your way to give you that energy to keep going. 😉
