Cats Festival in Lloret

 It does seem that this Cats Festival day had a very Russian feel, those who weren't dressed to resemble cats were dressed in traditional costumes from the different regions of Russia...and at one point on stage there was an exchanging of gifts with town hall officials all spoken in Russian and translated into Catalan!

Festival Gat de La Lunna 2013

 Its another beautiful day in Lloret de Mar, ideal weather for the Cats Festival I posted about on Friday, and just as I thought there were some colourful sights as you can see from the shots below. It was another opportunity to see the Lloret de Mar giants 'Es Nais' & 'Miss Ling' dancing around... along with two giant cats! Groups of beautifully dressed children were up on the stage entertaining the spectators with their carefully rehearsed singing and dancing acts which they all must have been working so hard to learn during the past weeks.

Festival of Cats in Lloret

Nothing to do with the real cats which you may see living on the streets in and around Lloret de Mar!
This weekend is something I've not heard of before and that is the Festival of Cats which seems to be centred around the Cat Museum C/ Sant Albert and Casa de Russia Passeig Verdaguer 11 Lloret de Mar.....Sunday 24th Feb - 2nd March there is to be an exhibition of art at Casa de Russia also on Sunday at 11am there will be a parade around the streets of Lloret.
After seeing the posters and online pieces about the event I'm thinking that this will be a fancy dress parade with people dressed as cats! If so then there should be some colourful and interesting sights to say the least!

Live music @ Carmen's Cafe

Carmen's Cafe have live music tonight Fri 22nd Feb from singing duo Anna - Maria the winners of the Ukraine's X Factor show!
