Albay has long been a picturesque province in the Bicol Region, and one city, Tabaco, shows off its colorful heritage in its annual Tabak festival, held this year from June 15-25.

The Tabak Festival is held in conjunction with the celebration of the city’s foundation anniversary. The festival derived its name from a local word “tabak,” meaning bolo, where the name of the city, Tabaco, was taken from. Its highlight is a street presentation where participants showcase the legend of the city. Numerous other activities are lined up to drumbeat the affair.

One thing i always do when travelling is riding on public vehicles. Mas fun kasi pag nagccommute. You meet and SMELL a lot of people. May moment dito na nagsstare kami at the dark not knowing sementeryo pala yung tinitingnan namin. Mga baliw eh. Late reaction. Another, kumakanta kami nung hey mickey you’re so fine and todo indak kami nila juvy and rosa tapos tiningnan kami nung nasa unahan na upuan sa sobrang kukulet, gagalaw at iingay namin. It’s fun. Kami yung naging energizer dun sa bus. I remember nung naniningil na ng pamasahe yung konduktor, sabi ni Rosa, itulak daw namin dun sa pinto yung konduktor pag kami na yung sinisingil Hahaha (we’re sitting kasi dun sa likod ng bus na malapit sa back door). Nakauwi kami around 9pm then yah, Great day! :))
