When I was a child, I enjoyed watching the giant couple walking the main road in our place during fiesta, or the feast of the Patron Saint.
I was so glad watching it walk slowly, and wondered how many people could be inside that 10 feet tall paper dolls.
Good thing the fiesta committee had the giant dolls again during last week's fiesta and I know children enjoyed watching it too.
Do you enjoy watching such things during fiestas or celebrations?

@acelawrites Yup, those were the giants I had seen in Paskuhan Village Pampanga when we had a field trip. They look scary... But what scared me more was the thought that it might fall down and I will be hit... LOL

If not for the crowd, I would! I prefer watching parades and festivals on TV, but of course it can't be compared to being there to enjoy the live atmosphere.

Yes, it is happening just once a year, so I missed being there.

It is really hard to organise such events; traffic was a mess.
