I was there and I really really impressed to the performance of the competing groups. I saw you too:)heheheReply kirby21 saysMarch 11, 2009 at 7:32 pmi’ve watched the samba de regatta in youtube, and it was really amazing! There’s a great potential for it to rival the Ati-Ati contest of Dinagyang Festival. Paraw Regatta Foundation should start looking for bigger sponsors in next year’s festival.Reply paul j. go saysFebruary 19, 2009 at 8:17 amI don’t see a skimboarding competition on the scheduled activities. Maybe it’s something to consider for next year.Reply Marcos C. saysFebruary 19, 2009 at 12:59 amsige alvin, kitakits lng :)Reply alvin | ILONGGO saysFebruary 18, 2009 at 8:24 pmchy..text mo ko upod ta ma cover sa sunday..heheReply
