Pahiyas Festival 2008

At long last, I got the chance to attend the Pahiyas Festival of Lucban Quezon. Its really a dream come true. I just saw that occassion sa newspapers, calendars and television, but this 2008, I got a chance to be there.

Dadalawang isip pa nga kami kz its raining, but Dad said whatever happens tuloy namin ang trip...because He knows I really wanted to go there.

Preparations:

I filed a vacation leave for 3 days May14-16, for this getaway.  April 01 pa lang I already filed na, hehehe...una una lang yan.....May 15, Thursday, before sunrise, 4:35 we left Imus, Daddy was the driver, Dad check the car, while I prepare our baon (spaghetti, ham & egg sandwich, liempo,  sodas, chox, chips) I also charged my batteries for the digicam and my ipod and Dad's PSP.  Then we go off to Shell to gas up..whew 2000 bucks men, for the fuel.Well 4:35 na, We say bye to Mama and hit off the road of Cavite going to SLEX.

How to get there:

Just take the SLEX, exit at Calamba going to Lucena and Batangas, dire-diretso lang dadaan kayo ng Turbina, Sto.Tomas, Alaminos San Pablo, Tiaong, Candelaria, Sariaya Tayabas then Lucban na. Mejo malayo pero meron pang isang way, dadaan daw ng Majayjay...pero di ko alam yun eh.....

 

 

 

 

Pahiyas Festival 2008 May 15, 2008 Lucban Quezon

Pahiyas Festival is a colorful feast in honor of San Isidro Labrador, the patron saints of farmers, as a thanksgiving for a bountiful harvest. Houses along the old streets of Lucban are artistically decorated with agricultural harvest, and of the very unique highlight of the festival, the "kiping". It is a wafer made up of rice that comes in different colors. The Lucbanons come up in different designs every year, as they showcase their artistic talents in decorating their houses.

This is my first time in this festival, before I just saw this event in the calendars and photos in the newspapers and also watched in Teevee, but this 2008, I promised myself to really get to see personally the festival...thanks to Daddy who really brought me safely in Lucban, with side trip to the Grotto. So check this out guys! I hope we can bring you next year on this colorful event...enjoy our photos.
