KANNAWIDAN Yloco Festival '11

Now on its fourth year,Kannawidan Yloco Festival,an Iloco term which means feast of all heritages, practices, and products in Ilocos Sur.

This festival showcases the pride of Ilocos, their culture, customs, traditions, and the beauty of the Ilocana. The Kannawidan Festival became an annual festival that aims to create awareness on the preservation of the cultural heritages, practice and traditions and a showcase of the different agriculture and industry products of the province. This festival features traditional dances, games, and music. It is a trade fair presenting different, colorful, and the biggest tilapia, watermelon and squash. Ive also tasted the delicious miki from Batac even if they are not part of Ilocos Sur, they presented their best food, the best of Batac City. The main hightlight of the festival is the search for SANIATA ti ILOCOS (Miss ILOCOS) where you can see the beauty and talents of an Ilocana.

By this Kannawidan Festival we can show and be proud of the TREASURE of ILOCOS SUR.

the true essence of christmas ..

Christmas is in the air.We now feel the cold breeze that signifies that Christmas is approaching.
Just a few weeks, we celebrate the birth of our savior Jesus Christ or its also known as Christmas day.
Different shapes of lanterns ,gigantic christmas trees ,colorful christmas lights , and gifts those are some of the things that comes to our minds when we heard the word Christmas.Christmas is the time where we can show our LOVE and SHARE our time to others. And this is also the time for us to forgive those who committed mistakes on us. And this Christmas may we not forget that the TRUE essence of CHRISTMAS is SHARING, LOVING, and FORGIVING.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
