A Rainbow in CDO - Gaston Park

Rarely do we see a rainbow in a bright Sunday afternoon.

This was taken yesterday while me and my girlfriend were a the park outside the CDO cathedral. We were only suppose to get some seeds from a purple flower near the side of the oval, but as soon as the fountains were plashing, the rainbow came out, and there we were smiling in silence as we look at one of the sights we rarely see nowadays.

And we shared the view with hundreds of people of all ages, and gender, as they were on their way of having a family time after church.

CDO Cathedral

The Augustinian Recollects first evangelized in what is now known as Cagayan de Oro City in 1622. The establishment of the first settlement is attributed to Fr. Agustin de San Pedro in 1626. The city was fomerly known as "Cagayan de Misamis" before it became the capital town of Segundo Distrito de Misamis in 1872. It became a city in 1950 when its name was changed into Cagayan de Oro and its San Agustin Cathedral was rebuilt.
