Lloret's Medieval Event 2011

The annual Medieval festival will be again taking place in the streets of Lloret 12th & 13th Oct. This is always a very popular event where you can see craftsmen demonstating how things were made in medieval times. The usual stalls of hand made goods and produce will be open through out the day from tomorrow morning until Sunday evening. There has been quite a bit of controversy just lately about the live animals and birds of prey which have been on show in past events, so this could be the last time the animals will be taking part.
