My impression upon seeing the parade participants

Walked to the starting point of the parade. The War Band and the Escolta were practicing their steps while the crowd was gathering, and everything looked very organized. I was checking my uniform when one of the teachers called us to get into position, so we rushed to our place.

Around us, the cheerleaders were warming up, the students with "cabezones" were preparing their big characters, and the group with umbrellas (green, white, and red) was practicing the flag movement.
