Before leaving the Philippines my dad says: "The Philippines? Well, I know about them, they are pretty girls there and from there I guess ukrizovavaju for Easter ". Well, first (by occurrence of whites) and confirmed that the second I set out to verify.
Cele in elkonocne holidays are here uuuplne ine. Day is on Thursday and on Good Friday, when it does not sell alcohol and radios do not play rock music as we learned from a taxi driver. On Monday it have any celebration, everyone staring at me, of why we have a holiday on Monday, the sak Jesus rose from the dead on Sunday, but ... And Manila is totally empty. Everybody way out to their villages with the whole family or use off the beach and frcia.
I've pretty nice waited on Good Friday. And I lived to see. We went with a colleague, Karla (from Peru), the direction of Pampanga, San Fernando, Kutud. About 12 for lunch to be launched and already we have met the 10 first odhodlancov what was knocked back by a bunch of wooden chopsticks Tying the tail of rags. To them from the blood flowed, and the designated "Good People" they made some cuts 
ch ran with a wooden brush with fish scales. So I marched behind him, head scarves and dark corners of their replica crown of thorns. Karl wanted to be sure the blood really right and sidle closer to one of them, what it vypomstilo few drops blood on the clothing.

And that let's ask how much the VIP stand. And they, of anything, just sign up and write from where you are. So we are waiting
not at least passed the time in the shade, near the small hill with three crises, where the crucifixion takes place should be surrounded by other tourists, who was not afraid to ask for the VIP spot - from Greece, U.S., Germany, Indonesia ... Around 12 began to test the microphones by oznomov the need to release a taxi from any parking space or even lost spoluturistov called from "Czechoslovakia", let waved from the crowd, from where they are, of others looking for an hour. 
And then it came. As the last part of "possession play, therefore the whole of Jesus' journey to the crisis came to Filipino soldiers in masks, the mother of Jesus, Mary and indeed a crying woman and of course" Jesus ". one last announcement, the audience has to respect ukrizujuceho of error and the stage of alcohol disinfection. Then already succeeded by the first BUCH and shocked the audience gasp, a uz second BUCH dvihali him up. Then another 2 BUCH and already had prikovane and legs. "Mother Jesus" began to lament, then some kind of monologue "bad ones" and then he still nailed to the monologue to overcome crisis - still supposedly played. Well, after about 3 minutes later he pulled the nails and take prec, that it can bind up the wounds as soon as possible.
Then followed the announcement, the audience has to maintain respect for a further 12 people who have crucified idu data - among them some kind of Australian. Well, after four us was enough, so we predrali between outgoing tourists who have risen to leave immediately after the first.
On the way to the bus, we still caught "pedikl" (bicycle with a cart) and the guy had no shirt. Scars on their backs, so we ask him, or even of he is "whipped" and why. And he, of hey, 2 years ago, because her grandmother has asthma ... well, like this bizarre, I described why it is here to do everything. Officially believe that their "flogging" get rid of all sins and crucified believe it is so easy to get to heaven ... or do not know what you think. Anyway - it was an experience of experience. Maybe not the most beautiful, but najbizardnejsich - but, another region, another morality;).
