These were taken last September 20, 2008 shortly before the start of the fluvial procession bringing back Ina (or "Mother", the name Bicolanos fondly address Our Lady of Penafrancia) to the Basilica.
One week earlier, in a procession called Traslacion, Ina was brought from the Basilica to the Naga Cathedral through the streets of Naga City. That began a week-long celebration that culminated in the Fluvial Procession pictured above.
Millions of devotees, Bicolanos and non-Bicolanos from everywhere, flock to Naga during this time of the year.
