Next weekend is Carnival Weekend. The people of Lloret go to an awful lot of trouble and expense at carnival time, a procession is held on Saturday afternoon and repeated on Sunday morning. Saturday night is party time and the bars and discoteques expect to get a good turn out.
All ages young and old will take part in the procession, in extravagent costumes and floats decked out in fantastic scenes and backgrounds.
Unfortunately the weather always seems to take a turn for the worse at carnival time- and the procession ends up being a rather soggy affair.
The above photos were taken from the Lloret de Mar Carnival in 2003, on one occasion when it did not rain.
