Blau Lloret de Mar

Day 3, 4

Day 3 I wasn't traveling at all, I was busy working, However on the forth day I managed to go to a town not far from Barcelona called Lloret de Mar. It is a new town located just near the seashore, with wonderful forests at the same time. There are a lot of hotels there for every type of traveler.

Hey!

Sorry, it´s been a while, I´ve been really busy! Had a great time in madrid, settled in after a few days and had loads of fun. Learnt lots of spanish as well, and met some great people.Also, I´m 22 now, which makes me old and responsible. Kinda sad to leave madrid, as it was a really great city to live in, but now here I am in Catalonia.

Granollers is a pretty nice town, lots of shops in a pedestrianised centre. The ...

... to see for ourselves.


Tossa was just as they had described it – a lovely beach in a large bay with a castle on the peninsula. The weather was lovely as we explored the town and found a restaurant behind the castle wall to have lunch, where Alison got to taste paella at last. She enjoyed the meal – although she had to admit the paella she had ...

escribo esto tirado en las playas catalanes. A la derecha, la muralla.
A la izquierda, la Minerva. Es la playa principal de Tossa de Mar,
medirá aproximadamente 200 metros de extencion y de la calle al mar
habrá unos 100 metros.
Esta muy bueno acá, hay sol pero no molesta, hace calor pero no
agobiante.
la parte urbana es pequeña pero muy linda, con callejuelas y todo muy
cerca!
desp escribo desde la muralla!

... really is like walking through his brain. Everywhere I turned there was something else to look at and ponder and react to. That was how this whole weekend went actually: 360-degree awe. Figueres also had this great little restaurant with walls covered in fresh bread-the paninis were amazing (another thing I've learned-enjoying myself is usually dependent on the basic human things...beautiful places are much more beautiful when my stomach is content haha ...

Last day with our C8 MPV and so Sue plotted out a day on the Costa Brava coast. Her research was spot on and we ended up for breakfast at Tossa de Mar (albeit at 10am). Gorgeous beach and easy parking just beating the rush. By the time we left (after a long swim) beach was packed. Sandy even did as the locals and bared her ...

I take a bus to Tossa de Mar, a small beach resort on the way to France. It is along the Costa Brava where the hills meet the coast making for some dramatic landscape. My thought was to use a luggage check, explore the town. I have a reservation for a hostel in Girona for the evening so I have to catch the 5:00 bus. Well, apparently much of Western Europe lacks baggage lockers. I go to a hotel and they refuse to take it for the day (even for ...

Sleeping on the sand fully clothed was a new one for us and were forced to wake up by the sun rise. As the sun got higher in the sky we seemed to get more and more lazy until we just decided to stay another night. I´m 22 and still havent managed to learn the sun tan lotion lesson. As a result I now look like the inside of a water melon ...

As a special birthday treat me and Olly decided to buy 3 litres of sangria (less than a euro), 3 litres of wine (less than a euro), a bottle of vodka (less than 4 euro), and a bottle of random spirits (less than 4 euro). We then hit the beach for the first time. Cooking our food amongst the rocks we met a wandering Dutch guy who spoke perfectly English. He sat with us for a cigerette. We then got truly hammered ...

... off my 2-month beard). Thoroughly disappointed. I hung out around the beach that night, the weather had calmed significantly, then went home and passed the fluck out! The next morning when I arroused I went to the beach again, bought some beach shoes (white) and began my cruise down the coast. I went up a small mountain at one end of the city beach and saw the amazing view from there. Then I went up a small mountain where a castel ...
