Aliwan Friendship
Woke up early as I would be attending the Friendship Games by our company to be held at Rizal Memorial Sports Complex. Met with my officemate/friend at McDonald's near La Salle to have breakfast and proceed to Rizal Memorial. It seems several people have the same idea as we saw several officemates at McDonald's, too.
There were raffle draws, mascot competition, muse and cheer dancing competition. We won the mascot competition!
The activity ended around 1PM. We then proceeded to Harrison Plaza for our lunch. We had ours at Shakey's. Many of those who attended the Friendship Games also have the same idea of having their lunch at Harrison Plaza.
After lunch, we walked to the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP) for the Aliwan Fiesta. I wanted to take pictures of the parade. At the CCP, there were temporary stalls which sells wares from different regions of the country. We spent sometime looking the items on display.
We then walked along Roxas Boulevard to "meet" the parade. It was supposed to start at 3PM at Luneta. We were able to walk from CCP to Malate (near Aristocrat) when we finally came across the first of the twenty participants of the parade. There are several competitions on said festivity: Reyna ng Aliwan, Dance Parade Competition, and Float Competition.
We then went to Aristocrat Restaurant for our dinner before proceeding home.
