Lloret Carnival Parade

We don't normally go to watch both Carnival parades but as it was such a nice morning today we had a walk just to try get a few more photos. That was the intentions but we got a little carried away! As we were in such a good spot in the midle of the road at the top of 'Avenida Just Marles' to see all the floats passing by we ended up with more than 700 shots - far more than we needed but here are some of my favourites from today!

Lloret Carnival 2014

This weekends carnival has so far been massive success...as it usually is! We were there yesterday to watch the 2 hour long parade along Lloret de Mar seafront and take photos for the website and blog. Thousands of people lined the route as all the floats passed by, luckily the weather did stay fine although it did feel a little cool as the sun was dropping. Well done to everyone who took part you all put on a fantastic show.
We have lots more photos which you can see over on the Lloret de Mar website here....Lloret de Mar Stuff

Cala Banys Lloret de Mar

 Cala Banys is a rocky cove in between the beaches of Lloret and Fenals, set in the rocks is the Cala Banys cocktail bar with outdoor terraces on different levels giving great views of the cove and out to sea. Just sit and relax with your drink as you enjoy the views, you'll want to stay forever its such a lovely calming atmosphere!

Lloret de Mar to Circuit de Catalunya

Judging by the emails I've had during the last 3-4 weeks it seems that those who have tickets for the F1 in Barcelona are unsure of the travel options they have to the Circuit de Catalunya from Lloret de Mar. Some of you may opt to rent a car or make your way there by public transport. The latter of which means a lengthy trip by both bus and train with several changes. By far the easiest way for a stress free journey would be to book a direct transfer to the circuit with pick up and return near to your hotel. For details of how to book your seat on the coach just contact me at jackiereindl@gmail.com.
