Christmas in Pampanga - Giant Lantern Festival

After some thought on what to post this Christmas, our blogger decides to use one of the most popular Christmas symbols in the Philippines to be his subject -- the "Parol".
Last December 17, he and his family (mom, brother and nephew) went to Robinsons Starmills, Pampanga to witness the Giant Lantern Festival.
This is a yearly competition of the biggest and brightest lanterns made by the best lantern-makers in the region. The materials used for each entry in the giant lantern festival may sum up to approximately P500, 000 or more (not counting the hard work and craftsmanship put into it).
