The traditional Florez de Mayo and Santacruzan are some of the filipino tradition that I wanted my daughter to see. Flores de Mayo (English: "Flowers of May") is a Catholic festival held in the Philippines in the month of May. Lasting for a month, it is held in honor of the Virgin Mary. The Santacruzan refers to the pageant on the last day of Flores de Mayo, held in honour of Reyna Elena and Constantine finding the True Cross in Jerusalem. This time, we headed to Amadeo where the Parish Priest decided to present this festival in a traditional way. The reynas were all beautiful and the gowns are all splendid.
There are more than a thousand things that makes life beautiful... let us celebrate its beauty by highlighting one every day... here's mine!
