Easter (Pag)Bati Salubong Celebration today at Angono Rizal April 21, 2019

Ang Uno sa Lahat

Angono, Rizal
April 21, 2019

As is the tradition, the Angono folks greeted the Easter Sunday with the the traditional bati, dicho at Bloomingdale Homes.  It must have started at 5 am because when I arrived at 5:30 am, it was halfway done. There was this video wall (expensive) complete video coverage and the works.  The kapitana and tenyenta must have spent hundreds of thousands of pesos to defray the cost of this celebration:   saya, banda, video coverage, food and the whole works

Happy Easter

Here are the other pictures

                                           At the  portion "nabuksan na" the birds swoop down to
                                             open the heart contraption containing an angel who
                                             will remove the black pall of the Virgin Mary image.  Only
                                              the big white bird representing purity can open the heart
