I still don’t know where to go this lenten season. My work is piling up and maybe this will be the only opportunity/break for me to update them all.

Wow! You are a real expert now! I admire your perseverance to document those Holy Week traditions.
You are doing a good job here… maybe time to publish another book about the Lenten traditions in the Philippines !
As always, your images are wonderful!

I had an overdose of Holy Week last year and decided to move on… maybe next year I will cover again my missing pieces… Paete, Infanta and a few other things.

Enjoy your Holy Week, Estan!
