San Juan is the festival of the shortest day of the year, and was the best night of our technical trip. We had our fiesta at the house of the Mizque volunteer, Katie! Armando, one of our technical trainers made an awesome bbq dinner for us, and we enjoyed celebrating the holiday in the typical Bolivian fashion with a huge bonfire and fireworks. The whole town of Mizque was bright and warm from all of the bonfires and there were fireworks everywhere. A funny tradition in the Mizque area was painting their livestock pink!
