My daughter in law and I woke up at 4:49 am, 11 minutes earlier than my alarm. Since we slept at the office, we don't need to worry of being late for today's activity. She prepared coffee while I folded the beddings and placed those inside the bag. We were ready by 6 am. I am wearing a black dress with a cream shawl on top. It's a modern Maria Clara dress. I chose this instead of the usual Filipiniana dress I wore during Flag Raising ceremonies. The activity started at around 6:30 am with an opening prayer and the singing of the Philippine National Anthem. After that an opening message was given by the local chief executive of the municipality. The activity was participated in by school heads and teachers of the different schools in the area, head of villages, other National Government Agencies and the employees and other personnel of the local government unit. The major part of the activity was the wreath-laying at the Rizal monument. Each office was being called by the emcee when it's their turn to offer wreath. My staffs and my daughter in law joined me in offering the wreath. After the activity, we pose for some photos and we decided to go home since it is a holiday. How's your day friends?
