Inking for the Festivity

Getting an amazing tattoo from one of the henna tattoo experts was worth the wait despite the heat and commotion of passersby in the side walk of downtown Cebu while the Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Dakbayan brought the festive mood in the air, last Sunday, a week before the grandiose Sinulog Festival.

Despite the heat and uncomfortable tattooing session, I still managed to smile for the camera

 Tata, who hails from Davao, and his business partner were also good at making conversations with their customers and made the "tattoo experience" boredom free.

... with Tata, the artist who came all the way from Davao to join the Sinulog festivities, and did this tattoo for me!

Now I'm thinking what my boss will say when I come to the office, Monday!
