Pirates of the Med!

Until the 29th May you can see an exhibition about the days when pirates ruled the Mediterranean in the downstairs hall of the Casa de Cultura - Plaza Pere Torrent.

Out & about in Lloret.

 Out and about in Lloret today it does now appear that the weather may be becoming more settled...I'm sure I've said that before not too long ago! 

So a few photos of the different sights we came across today while out for a walk in the sun....

 The 1st was actually taken from our balcony of the parrot that seems to have made Fenals his home for the last 2yrs.  He can often be heard making his loud squawking noises as he is flying around our local area, but its now a few weeks since he was heard so I thought he'd moved on to somewhere warmer, but here he is again hopefully hes back for the summer, sadly I don't think he's got a mate yet!

 Some of the beautiful flowers which are now in flower...Bird of Paradise above and a gorgeous pink Magnolia tree in full bloom. 

 The sun shining through the tall pine trees!

Lloret de Mar Views

An early morning walk through the woods!

Taking a walk through the woods between Lloret and Fenals gives you some of the best views of the town, its such a refreshing change to get away from the busy shopping streets and nightlife area normally associated with Lloret. From the sea front just take the path towards the Dona Marina statue and keep to the footpath which leads you to Bar Cala Banys, you then have to take the steps round the back of the bar and again keep to the pathway to reach the cliff tops from where you can see these stunning coastal views.
