Lloret Christmas Toy Market

After the much publicised toy market taking place over this weekend I'm sorry to say it wasnt one of Llorets greatest ideas. Posters were posted on walls and boards all over town to advertise it but nothing special was taking place at all just 3-4 stalls with a few toys for sale and someone blowing up balloons to give out to the kids. In my opinion it was just a ploy to try get people to use the market over the Christmas period...very disappointing!

Christmas shopping in Lloret



Out in Lloret de Mar centre tonight and the shops are all nicely decorated for Christmas but the streets are still very quiet. Most hotels are closed but some will be opening shortly for the guests who have booked for their Xmas and  New Year holidays.


Several of the shops have good offers on just now hoping to draw people though their doors to spend as much cash as possible. In Spain however the 'Christmas shopping' will carry on until the 5th January as the main day for exchanging gifts is the Day of the Kings on the 6th.

Lloret de Mar at Christmas



On the run upto Christmas in Lloret this year the weather is still very good, today however its very dull and cloudy but still a very mild 16ºc. The evening time is when the chill really sets in and it feels very cold and damp with almost 100% humidity, so if your spending some time in Lloret over the Christmas holiday then you will need your winter woolies and coats!
