Fira dels Americanos Lloret

 There was lots of activity today along Passeig Verdaguer with the start of the 4th edition of the Fira dels Americanos.

All those who attend the event dressed in the traditional white clothing of the Americanos will be given a souvenir hat...you only have to ask at the Floridita Bar!

The full programme of the weekends entertainment can be found here...Fira dels Americanos

Todays views of Lloret & Fenals

 Looking out from high above the cliffs near the tower of Sant Joan between Lloret and Fenals we can get a great view of the plane (and the pilot!) that advertises the various nightclubs of Lloret.

 With todays temperature of 32ºc  its nice to sit under the shade of one of the beach bars with a nice cool drink looking out to our local beach of Fenals....you never know who will pass by, I wonder who it was in this posh superyacht today? 

This weekend in Lloret de Mar

Over the coming weekend 13-15th June we can once again relive the times of the 'Americanos' with their demonstrations of crafts, entertainment and of course the drinks! Daiquiris will be on sale at the replica bar of the world famous Floridita in Cuba. For a full programme of the 3 day long event just take a look at the schedule here 'Fira dels Americanos'

At present many of the hotels on the coast are full owing to it been a holiday weekend in Barcelona, and those with holiday homes are now in town to enjoy the good weather.

Views of Lloret de Mar

 Today we are viewing Lloret de Mar through a long telephoto lens, all these shots were taken from more or less the same location on the headland above the Dona Mariners statue.

In the foreground in the 1st photo is the Selva Mar Hotel up on the road leading out to Tossa de Mar, the apartment block behind with the orange blinds is the Norest where we have stayed many times over the years!
