Ivanovden day (St. John's day)

To be honest this was a bit of reach! Life caught up with us and left us searching for something to celebrate but it could not have worked out better. We found Ivanovden day on a Bulgarian website... there is not much information on it but we ran with it. Essentially it is a feast day celebrating John the baptist. It said celebrate people with the name John or Ivan so we did! We scouted out our local haunts for a John... or two! We even made a sign....

This is us with the first John we found! We bought him a pint of his choice in celebration! It went down well... John and his friends seemed to like our Celebrate Everything Project :) A winner!

Though repeatedly saying John makes it a little bit crazy and again those dirty minded folk tried turning it something it wasn't... however e we got our local blues band on board and got a lovely shout out!

This is how we tried to catch a John..
