Barcelona Fountains Video

From our day in Barcelona here is another fantastic video of the Magical Fountains...

A day in Barcelona

One of the most popular excursions from Lloret de Mar is a day in Barcelona, and its easily accessible by either road or rail. Buses run direct to the city from Lloret de Mar bus station, or if you prefer to take the train then you can also buy your tickets at the bus station where you first get the bus to Blanes train station...your ticket covers both the bus and train fare. 

You can also book an excursion at the Laietana office just by the bus station, here you can choose which type of trip you would like. If you are a football fan then your excursion could include a visit the famous Nou Camp football stadium which would also give you free time in Barcelona for shopping etc.

 For those wishing to see the magical fountains then this is an afternoon/evening trip, with this excursion you will see fantastic panoramic views of Barcelona from Park Guell along with a visit to Sagrada Familia chuch....again with some free time to stroll down the Ramblas or enjoy a walk through the Gothic quarter.

Second Hand Market in Lloret

This Sunday 28th October a second hand market is to be held  in the Reiral district of Lloret. After the market was such a success last year it seems its now going to become an annual event. Those who are wishing to have a stall must first fill in a registration form and pay a €25 fee, some of the stores where you can register are - Co Working Lloret,  Papereria Fatima, and Ferreteria el Reiral.

Please Note....

This event has been postponed until next Sunday 4th Nov owing to the predicted bad weather....Good! that means I can go now!

October in Lloret de Mar

 We are now almost at the end of October but as these photos from yesterday show we are still having great weather....although the town is very quiet just now. Those who are here on holiday for a 'winter break' can still spend a little time on the beach as the temperatures are very good. As usual at this time of year as the summer season comes to a close some of the businesses in town close for their winter break, the Leman restaurant, El Relicario, Rob Roy Tavern, Alexis Hotel and Oasis Park Hotel are just a few which have already closed.
