My previous post in anticipation of Kadayawan 2010:

In less than a month from now, I will be having my first Kadayawan experience! The festival is Davao’s most anticipated event every year. What makes me more excited is that participanting tribes all over Mindanao for the street dance-parade will converge right in front of where I am staying here in Davao, along Roxas Avenue, as the starting point of the parade. Camera, check!
