And make your own buko halo halo! It quite possibly might even come out better. :)<BR/><BR/>Yes, Jo, a proper picnic without any rain! We do a simple one with the kids and my folks in the park in N.

But I do I dislike the rainy season more. <BR/><BR/>My dad's mom's family was from Lucban, Quezon (most live in Manila now, though). When we were young, we'd go to the Pahiyas fiesta every May 15.

My dad does have a province, but we'd only go for the fiesta. Besides, it was more like a little city, really.
