Christmas in Lloret de Mar

 The Christmas lights have now been switched on in Lloret, here are just a few of our shots from around town. It is still very mild for the time of year and hopefully it will stay that way for the holidaymakers visiting Lloret over the Christmas & New year period. 

Christmas events in Lloret

Christmas is nearly with us again and Lloret de Mar has lots of events going on all around the town. You can see the full agenda here http://lloretdemar.org/images/publicacions/agendadesembre2016.pdf

Empuriabrava Butterfly Park

Yesterday we had a very pleasant day out from Lloret de Mar at the Empuriabrava Butterfly Park...

As well as the very colourful butterflies there are birds from all over the world, reptiles, and even a bat cave....I missed out that part of the visit...bats aren't my favourite creatures at all!
Entrance fee at present is €9.50 with a reduction for children.

November events in Lloret

Every November Lloret de Mar hosts the very popular Medieval weekend...this is always well attended with lots of things going on for all the family.
The town is turned into a medieval style village and market, shows, exhibitions, demonstrations can also be seen. You will also see weird and wonderful scary characters in the streets as you walk around...see the photos below from last weekends event.
