Sirens bellowed as the police mobile led the motorcade to celebrate the "23rd" Simballay Festival" in Nabunturan, Compostela Valley Province. Motorcycles and cars joined the activity as they are witnessed by their beloved community. Children smiling with joy yelling "Simballay!" pointing to those things as if they can't hold up their excitement and childish thoughts. Though I am not a Nabunturanon, I can feel the happiness there is in a proud Nabunturanon individual. It is in their culture and in their hearts that will blossom especially every Christmas season.
As I wander throughout Nabunturan, streets were filled with beautifully constructed cottages with its different concepts from the participating barangays of the municipality. Fruits are displayed showing how bountiful Nabunturan is. Lights are lightened as they twinkly showing their beautiful colors, brightening the street.
Drums played their beats making the music more alive as the performers danced gracefully with their festive and colorful costumes. The festival lasted for a week making it memorable for the Nabunturanons and the visitors. It is a great pleasure to be with and be one of them to celebrate the festival.
very nice
