My first ever Sinulog Fest photo. I've been living here in Cebu, Philippines for almost 6 years and I know it's hard to believe that this was the first photo I had since then. I did celebrate Sinulog Fest 2 years ago but I was, sad to say, alone. I didn't get to enjoy it that much because I was ALONE. The sad truth of being a lonesome. Hahahah! I just had this photo last January 20, 2014 (Sunday), exactly the date of the Sinulog Festival.

People from different places all over the Philippines come and visit Cebu to watch and experience this fun and exciting fest, which the main highlight is to give glory to the Patron Saint of Cebu - Sr. Sto. Nino.

Sto. Nino is said to be the "Little Jesus" or "The Baby Jesus" . Every day, people in Cebu (coming from different municipalities and barangays) come to Basilica de Sto. Nino to join the Novena mass. Different people from different classes join together in one purpose- that is: To give Glory and Honor to Sto. Nino.

During the Sinulog Festival, Cebu would be the loudest. The City would be very colorful and so are people.
It's fun and wonderful. It's crazy and very vulgar. It's a real festival. It's a big celebration. It's a huge party.

You can see the unity of all Cebuanos and the friendship in the City. That's the good thing I observed here in Cebu. For 6 years, I could say that this City has the most friendly people. I guess that's the reason why many tourists come and visit Cebu. It's not just the festival alone but the confidence towards the people. If you're a foreigner and have not visit Cebu yet, then you must try it! It's one of the best cities in the Country.
