Fireworks in Lloret July 2011


This week there have been various events taking place in and around Lloret, the fireworks display is the finale to The Santa Cristina festival which should have taken place on the evening of Tuesday 26th. Owing to the terrible weather conditions it was cancelled and rescheduled  to take place last night, this time the event went ahead with no problems!
We made our way to Lloret beach in order to get a good view ready for the display starting at 10.30pm...(even though in one official Lloret site the time was given as 11.30pm!)
The fireworks are now set to various pieces of music and done in about 5-6 different sections, which to me either adds to it or can distract from the display.....my personal opinion for last night? It was good but I have seen (much) better in previous years!
Were you there - what did you think?

Ryanair in Girona


After so much recent talk about the low cost airline Ryanair threatening to pull out of Girona airport in November, it seems that they now have some sort of timetable in place for the winter season.  The Spanish newspaper El Pais has reported on this subject in more detail, click here to read the article >>  EL PAIS

Lloret de Mar Clon Festival 2011 - Abba


Dancing on the beach!

What another great night of entertainment in Lloret de Mar last night 22nd July with the Abba tribute "Abba Revival"  The crowds started gathering much earlier than usual so by the time the band came on stage at 10.15pm there was hardly a good view point to be found. Even the beach was full, and resembled a dance hall as the crowd sang and danced along to many of Abba's greatest hits. This was by far the largest gathering of spectators for any of the Clon Festival bands so far!

Lloret de Mar Clon Festival 2011

The next Clon Festival event is to take place this Friday 22nd down by the beach in Lloret. It is the turn of Abba Rivival tribute band who will be on stage at 10.15pm. This is the second time here in Lloret for this band, they were a massive sucess when we last saw them back in August 2006 when they had everyone singing and dancing to everyones favourite hits by Abba!
