Here are images from the Pitlagong Festival.
My cousin, IC holding the banner for Langtad Elementary School in the Opening Parade
I think these cuties are from Bulasa Elementary School. See how serious this little kid with the silver drum is?
Not sure which school this was.
Gedor and his friend. Talaga's contingent in the Festival Parade. They had an Octopus on top of a truck.
This little kid looked like he was saying, "This is how you do it!"

CSCST's drummers.
Canbanua National High's float had a kid on top of a coconut tree cleaning sugongs with a pitlagong.
More little drummers. Average height of this band is about 3.5 feet. And they sound awesome!
Policemen were the official color bearers.
Miss Argao Candidate
Pretty Girls from Saint Michael School
Town Mayor Willie Caminero with other goverment officials.
Forgot which contingent this was. They were the most unique, wearing strappy sandals instead of the usual twirler's boots.
More cute drummers.
Pitlagong queens.
Argao II's float. The firefighter was drenched in sweat. It was really warm and he had to wear that!
There was a wake near my house. What else comes with a wake? Hantak, of course! Mao ni mga hantakero sa ka Nang Mina. Atbang sa Cozy Corner.
