Burns Night in Lloret

 Last night Rabbies Bar in Lloret de Mar held their Burns supper night to celebrate a special day in the Scottish calendar - the birthday of Rabbie Burns. The traditional meal of haggis, tatties and neeps was dished up for everyone there....it was great night with standing room only! So on behalf of everyone thanks to Hammy, Linda, Colin and also the 'dinner ladies' who dished out the food they all worked so hard to make it such an enjoyable evening.

Bus from Girona or Barcelona to Andorra or Perpignan

Arriving at Girona or Barcelona and travelling onto either Andorra or Perpignan? then there is an excellent bus service operated by FrogBus! From Girona the bus picks up at the airport and also the bus and train station. The journey to Andorra from Girona can take as little as 3.5 hrs!

This bus service could also benefit rugby fans who travel to this area to watch their teams playing the Catalan Dragons at Perpignan. In Lloret de Mar and other nearby resorts we often have rugby fans who have booked a hotel for few days with intentions of travelling on to Perpignan for their game, with the FrogBus from Girona you can be in Perpignan in less than 2 hours. More details along with ticket prices and times for any of these journeys can be found on the FrogBus website.

Just now if you book a return Journey online before 25th January you will only pay  for a single trip, for example - Girona to Perpignan will only cost you €18 for the round trip, a great price! This price is available for any journey taken before March 31st

Lloret de Mar in the winter.

Who would have thought that this is same place which has had so much bad publicity in the past! Lloret is 

known for its great nightlife and clubbing scene which may deter some people from taking their holidays here,   but what they dont know is that it is a holiday resort which caters for everyone! We have great restaurants, shops of every description in traffic free shopping areas, and top class hotels...there's no need to be amongst the noise of the night club area. You can come to Lloret and have a very relaxing holiday if you wish. These early morning winter scenes show just what a beautiful place Lloret is! 

 

 

Shopping at Lloret's Indoor Market

Almost all the towns in Spain have their own indoor market where the locals will do most of their weekly shopping for meat, fish, fruit and veg. These indoor markets are usually open from Monday to Saturday but as well as these there are weekly outdoor markets which are very popular with tourists. Lloret's municipal market is situated in the old part of town just a few minutes walk from the bus station.
