Lloret de Mar Market Day

Tuesday morning is market day in Lloret, and with the good weather this morning it gave the teachers of the local infants school a good opportunity to get the kids out of the classroom and take them out to learn all names of the different vegetables for sale on the stalls!

At last it looks as though we may have a few continuous days of sunny weather this week! As you can see from the photos here taken today, there's not a cloud in sight!
The local forecast this morning has predicted that the temperatures will continue to rise as the week goes on with no sign of rain at all.......about time !!

Lloret de Mar - Cala Banys



Walking through the woods above the rocks at Cala Banys between Lloret and Fenals you can see all kinds of birds. This photo of a Jay was taken there only last week. We have seen red squirrels up there but they are too quick for us to get a photo....may be one day we'll catch them unawares!
