Another beautiful day in September!

 

Sunday on the beach with a mix of holiday makers and as its the weekend lots of the local residents making the most of their day off work! ... But not everyone gets a weekend off work, some workers especially those in the bar trade work 7 days per week from the start of the season to the end. Most of them will now be counting down the days to when they actually finish and if you ask they will probably know exactly how many days they have yet to work!

September in Lloret

Fenals Beach

 September in Lloret and we are still having glorious weather but there is a much more relaxing atmosphere about town and on the beaches. With the children being back to school after their long summer break...its now time for the grown ups to have their holidays and the bars, clubs and restaurants are still open until mid October at least. Its a great time to visit Lloret de Mar just now as there are some bargain flights available to the Cost Brava for the coming weeks!

Lloret de Mar Shopping

Its been reported that Lloret's council has now decided (at long last!) that it needs to look into the types of shops which are now opening in the town. Hopefully it seems that they have now realised that every other shop in the centre are all selling the same cheap tacky items! Personally I think that there are now too many Chinese bazaar shops and shops which sell everything for a Euro...or less. Fake branded goods and fake football shirts can be bought in far too many of these shops, surely this is illegal? Some of the offensive wording and pictures printed on the T shirts, beach towels and other stuff which are seen hanging outside these stores hardly give the right image of the family resort that Lloret de Mar is trying to be.

We do have some very nice designer names and good quality stores in Lloret so surely its time that the council looked at ways to only allow people to open 'nice' stores but will the Lloret officials ever change it, maybe its gone too far to do a U turn!
