Bandilyo Abaknon

John Goss, a.k.a. John Pitt, has already sent me some of the photos he took while on vacation in Capul (I still expect more, John, he he). I will start with the souvenir shots during their post-fiesta palayahay in my “kurubong” in Malpal. I am not sure if I know all the guests there, but of course, there’s Mr. & Mrs. Bernard & Mila Ortego, Mana Dolor Bascon, Mana Nory Alfaro and husband Dante and Toto Cabacang.

Here are some pics of adventurous Abaknons enjoying the now-famous rapids of Cagayan de Oro. On board are Alden Tepace and wife Aileen, Cellini Tepace , Nerissa Suan, Bonard Baguipo and Chad Blasquillo. Kunta niya may daito Capul. :-)

Here's a toast to more happy and successful years! (sorry for the blurred pic. i just cropped it from my file photos.)

It rained the night of the town fiesta (vespera), but as full-blooded Abaknons, we never allow anything to spoil our fun. So despite the heavy downpour, the dancing continued – onstage! Here are some shots of the happenings that night. Thanks to Michelle Hilario-Jao.

It seems that many Abaknons celebrated their natal days recently. Let me add to the roster that of Aldous Canapi -the pictures therein are posted below. For the others, please don’t hesitate to send them to the administrator. Just seeing you all having fun is enough for many fellow Capulenos to feel just as happy.
