Congrats to the winners! Hope they could make it to the Aliwan Festival!Reply chymera00 saysJanuary 29, 2008 at 9:06 pmOo nga. Congrats to both of us :DReply eric saysJanuary 29, 2008 at 1:59 pmmarc, preho ta kuno gina mention sa Freedom grandstand as media partners. aahahahReply chymera00 saysJanuary 28, 2008 at 10:07 pmThanks Gladita, I didn’t know of it until a friend told me. It came so unexpected.Of course you can borrow the pictures, provided the watermark and credits are not cropped out.I’m an alumni of INHS and and I would also want to watch Bola-bola during the Dinagyang in the years ahead, they made such a great impact to the festivity.Reply gladita saysJanuary 28, 2008 at 9:38 pmCongrats marcos, i was quite happy for you when i heard your site being acknowledged as one of the media sponsors. Anyway, can I borrow some of your photos for my blog? Will give you credit and link of course.I can’t decide between Paghida-et and Ilonganon. Both deserves to win. I think Tribu Bola-Bola has brought Dinagyang to a different level when they joined. I remember looking forward to every Dinagyang from then on. It’s a pity they no longer join. It’s good that every Dinagyang is better than the last. Congrats to the winners, the organizers, and to all Ilonggos.Reply chymera00 saysJanuary 28, 2008 at 9:21 pmI was rooting for Ilonganon to win because I was impressed on the innovations they bring to Dinagyang. I was a bit surprised they did not win. Nevertheless, Paghidaet did an excellent performance! Congratulations to all the winners!Reply chymera00 saysJanuary 28, 2008 at 9:18 pmChanged na. Thanks guid eric for sharing your photos. I was late, as you know, so I haven’t taken pictures of Ang Taga Jaro during the Dinagyang Ati and Tribu Kasag during the Kasadyahan.Reply eric saysJanuary 28, 2008 at 8:39 pmchange my family name to DEEaheheReply
