Lloret de Mar in November

November 15th and after 2-3 days of dull and cloudy weather we are now basking in the sun again with the temperature reaching 18ºc today!
The 1st two photos show the Fenals area..and the 2nd two show Lloret with the Christmas tree now in place outside the town hall....its very quiet today as many shops and hotels are closed at present.

Evening Views of Lloret

 Lloret de Mar is very quiet just now, these early evening views show the deserted beach.

Today the weather has been very cold with strong winds....winter is definatley here!

Medieval weekend in Lloret

Fira Medieval - Lloret

Handmade glass ware.

There was a great atmosphere in Lloret centre last night, the Medieval festival has certainly brought a lot of people into town.....at times it was hard to get through the crowded streets. I'm glad to say the weather has stayed fine for this years event, it was a beautiful evening yesterday as we were taking these photos. The usual stalls were there, most of which were demonstrating just how they make the items which they were selling. Today is the final day and again it looks as though its going to be a nice day for those who are in town this weekend. Just now there are a few light clouds about but I'm sure the sun will be breaking through shortly!   

(more photos tomorrow)

Hungry ??

Pottery

 A colourful stall selling hand made wooden toys!

 I wonder what the dog is seeing here....dinner perhaps?

Watching the parade go by!

Lloret de Mar Market

 After the annual second-hand market event was postponed due to the bad weather it finally went ahead last Sunday. It gave the locals who wanted to take part a chance to clear out their unwanted items and earn a few Euros for their efforts. There were also many stalls selling new stuff, probably discontinued stock from some of the local businesses. For anyone wanting a stall here (the cost this year was €25) you must first of all register at one of the designated shops in the El Reiral district. Everything you could possibly think of was on sale at this years market...even the local sex shop had a stall! 

 Great shoes and boots but not suitable for walking along the bumpy streets of Lloret!!

 One stall that did catch my eye was the one selling celebration cakes and cup cakes, I have a few more photos of this stall which I will be showing later and also details of how you can contact the stall holder if you need a cake for your celebration !
