Watch Dinagyang 2010 Live

We are now in Iloilo City, Philippines to celebrate the Dinagyang festival 2010. Together with my friends, we strolled the city early in the morning to prepare for the event. The city is still calm, but from the looks of it, the streets are filled with streamers and banners that shows there is going to be a big event to happen. The first thing we did was to go to Mc Donalds to grab some breakfast because we know, once the show starts, we may not have the time to eat. After that, we strolled along J.M. Basa St., up to the Freedom Grandstand where the first judging area is going to be held. So now, we are busy capturing pictures and videos of the 16 different tribes in dinagyang. Check out and watch Dinagyang 2010 live.Above are some pictures from the Dinagyang Festival 2010.
