There is a heavy downpour during halfway of the parade. Despite the rain, the parade still go on as usual.
The Christmas Parade ends on 10pm and everyone was happy. The journey may not be pleasant under the heavy downpour but the spirit is still high as spreading of the gospel is the main objective.
