Christmas & Reyes in Lloret

Today in Spain is traditionally the day that the children receive their Christmas presents...not from Father Christmas but the 3 Kings! In Lloret at 6pm this evening we can see them arrive by boat then make their way up the beach to the Town Hall. From there they travel to the sports pavillion at the back of town throwing sweets out to the hundreds of spectators who usually line the streets to watch the parade pass by....a very special event for all the kids to see!

Lloret Blog is 10yrs old!

The Lloret Stuff blog has now been online for 10 years, the first post was published by Debbie on 31st Dec 2005.....shortly after that she passed it all over to me....thanks Debbie!!
Since that time there have been thousands of photos published that I have taken in just about every street and corner of Lloret de Mar...as well as some from a few places further afield.
Thanks to everyone who pops by to look at the photos, judging by the stats which I have embedded in the blog I can tell that we are just as popular now as we were at the very start.

So here's to the next few thousand pics and Happy New Year to you all!

Today I have just 2 photos of tonights beautiful sunset....

Merry Christmas from Lloret

Wishing all visitors to the blog a very Happy Christmas and Best Wishes for 2016, there will be still lots more photos to come during the Christmas holidays......and even more exciting events and places to be seen next year! 

Adult/sex shop in Lloret de Mar

So much of the entertainment is aimed at families with young children - but what about a bit of fun for the grown ups you may ask! In Lloret just a few minutes walk from the famous castle there is a shop filled with products strictly for adults only. Patricia the owner contacted me to ask if we could include her business on the blog - so with so many holidaymakers, hen and stag parties that visit Lloret every year I thought....why not!

Maybe if you would like a bit more fun in your private life or have a stag or hen party planned in Lloret then you are more than welcome to call in and browse and hopefully buy, if you need any help then I'm sure you will find Patricia most helpful.

Take a look at the website here for details of Patricia's stock, www.sexshopcostabrava.com 

The shop is open all year Mon - Sat 10h to 14h - 17h to 20h. (Open Sunday's during the summer)

Tirada a l'Art - Lloret de Mar

 It was a beautiful start to the day on Sunday morning for the fishing event Tirada a l'Art. This is an old form of fishing and in Lloret de Mar they still carry out this tradition several times a year. Whatever fish is caught its immediately washed and cooked for everyone who has helped bring in the net...served with lots of bread & wine!
