    I was there Saturday about 6 pm to 10 pm and, yes, it was packed like sardines. We parked about a 5 minute walk away (Silliman Avenue, west of the main highway). Even as we were leaving Freedom Park, people were still streaming in.

    It is an amazing spectacle of culture and creativity and well worth a visit (the 'booths' created by each town/city are incredible) - however, I cannot help but think how much good the money spent would have done for those who starve daily. But I guess the starving had an enjoyable time there.

    And, as a polite foreigner, I often stood aside to allow people to pass - the number of thanks I received in the whole evening was zero!
