More Rain in Spain!

You wouldn't believe the weather here could be so changeable here! After been kept awake most of Saturday night by the storm, it did eventually stop and gave us the chance to have a walk out in the warm sun until again the dark clouds came and then the rain started again along with hailstones and thunder & lightening! Today however we have the sun again but more rain is forecast for later...

The Rain in Spain!

Stormy skies over Lloret again! Last night we were kept awake most of the night with a massive thunder storm, which hopefully may clear the skies for a much needed change in the weather...the month of May hasn't been very good at all, with more rain and possible storms to come!

Lloret de Mar Maritime Museum

Lloret's Maritime Museum is located opposite the beach and just a short walk from the town hall. The main theme of the museum tells the story of how the people of Lloret made their living from the sea, both by fishing and ship building. Scale models of the ships built are on show, along with the stories of how the towns folk sailed to Cuba and the West Indies to trade, returning to Lloret when they had earned their fortunes. The museum is housed in one of the few original buildings left which were built by those who returned to Lloret, almost all of those grand buildings were demolished in order to make way for the much needed hotels for start of the tourist trade back in the 1950s....the new idea of bringing money to the town!
