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
