In January in my town there is a party called "las fiestas del retorno".
You can do many things in these days; like go to see the tournament of soccer if you like that sport,also there is a tournament of basketball and a tournament of voleyball.
But there aren´t only sports to see; you can go to dancing to the principal street or go to see a performance to the park.
If you want you can go to a bar and listen the music that you want and maybe drink a beer and see beautiful girls.
For the mornings you can buy souvenirs like handicrafts, tradicional food "donnas", or things that you need for the week.
O.K thah is all and come to the party of El Santuario.
