Balloon trip goes wrong in Vic!

Watching what should have been several ballons taking off from Placa Mayor in Vic...it didn't go quite to plan with the first flight. Needless to say the evening event was cancelled after this disasterous take off to make safe the damaged roof! 

Lloret de Mar Carnival 2018

Well, the 2 carnival parades are over for another year and what a great event it was! All those who took part have worked really hard to learn their dance routines during the past few weeks. The costumes as usual were immaculate, so much hard work has gone into making them...well done everyone you put on a fantastic show which was enjoyed by the hundreds of spectators lining the route!

Once again Carnival time will soon be here in Lloret de Mar...the parades will take place on Saturday 10th February at 4pm and Sunday 11th at 12 noon. It's always a great atmosphere in town as the parade of floats pass by. Hundreds of spectators line the route so be sure to get there early to get a good view point! The photos here are just a small selection we have taken in previous years.
