We had to wait until 8 am for the parade to start, and when it did, hordes of people appeared from nowhere and we were forced to stand up because the crowd at the back were pressing on us. Our crowd was also the noisiest, and there were a lot of inconsiderate people who arrived late but acted like VIPs and kept blocking our view (there was even one who kept screaming she was media and acted like we were supposed to bow down to her but she has no ID). I wasn't able to take a picture of the float from Cebu because of a commotion behind us. Apparently, an old woman collapsed because she can't breath properly. Poor dear. Overall, the parade was great to watch save for the inconsiderate people I mentioned above. Augh. People. I don't think we will be watching it from the same spot next year. Oh well. Lesson learned. Here are several shots I took of the float, the rest I will upload in my Facebook account later when I have the time:
No family pictures. We hardly thought of that because we always fear of a stampede happening. Svet and Elijah were with us so we were worried. Anyways, there's still the closing ceremonies of Session Road In Bloom (it opens today, March 1) and a fireworks display on March 7. I hope my mom comes home by then so we can truly enjoy the festivity.
Our blogversary contest is ongoing! More than $500 of cash and prizes are at stake!

iniisip ko kung ano pangalan ng flower festival jan.. tama pala, pangbenga. sa davao naman, pag kadayawan, meron din floral float parade at pacontest din. :D miss ko na event na yon!
sana makavisit rin ng baguio during the panagbenga. para maexperience ko rin at mapractice ang aking pagka paparazzi. :D
is the tiger main attraction?
wow ang ganda! I'm sure haping-hapi ang mga bata dyan. sana minsan makapunta rin ako dyan
over here if want play fireworks need to ask for approval, I mean those big one.
wow.. sa susunod dyan naman ako pupunta :D at manonood ng parade :)
Nice! I've only heard about this parade but never been there to witness it. Maybe one day. Thank goodness you have pictures to share, at least we can 'see' it through your blog.
