Empuriabrava: First step towards redesigning the Sant Mori and bridge over C-261

EMPURIABRAVA / CATALONIA / SPAIN: Anyone who has been informed by the Town Hall of Castelló that there are palm trees in his estate that have been attacked by the palm weevil without the owner taking the necessary measures now has to bear the consequences: there are substantial fines. Although these are in most cases at 500 euros, the penalty can reach up to 3,000 euros in certain cases. The city council had ordered that the infested trees would first have to receive one or more poisonous showers from above, before the dead trees would be felled and their remains disposed of. The poison shower was therefore called absolutely necessary, because otherwise the beetles would have escaped from their nests and new trees could have infected. In addition, the larvae were to be killed before they could develop into new insects. Should it not be possible for a locality of no more than 20 000 inhabitants to have the local government hire a multilingual secretary who is capable of storing foreign names and addresses neatly in community computers so that concerns of this urbanization are communicated to the homeowners ...

EMPURIABRAVA / CATALONIA / SPAIN: Last Thursday, October 31st, chestnuts were roasted in Castelló d'Empúries and hundreds of visitors followed the call. At the town hall stood the chestnut grill and practically without ceasing it was "fed" with chestnuts, which then came black from the embers, filled into paper bags and then eaten. Apart from black fingers, the participants did not pass anything, except that some complained of too much eaten chestnuts.

On Sunday from 15.30 clock the event is repeated, but then in Empuriabrava. In the Casal Cívic behind the shopping center Alberes then the grill is built and everyone can come to pick up one or more bags of autumn delicacy. But beware: the tastes then do so just right after grilling black balls,

So: Formula 1 and the crime scene are not until 20.00 o'clock - there you have some time in the afternoon.

CASTELLÓ / CATALONIA / SPAIN: On Sunday, November 3rd, a flea market will take place in Castelló d'Empúries in the center. The flea market is held every first Sunday of the month throughout the year.

At the flea market, which is open from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm, you can basically buy anything that is reasonably interesting and not too broken or even stolen. Of course, the goal is to build an antique market, but that's hard, and that's what sets you apart. A market for everyone is a fine thing and a wonderful pastime on a Sunday morning - if need be even after the service and before the morning pint.

If you are interested in participating, you should contact the Town Hall in Castelló or Empuriabrava. Incidentally, the market is officially called "Fira-Mercat de Brocanters"

EMPURIABRAVA / CATALONIA / SPAIN:

It is really difficult to get all the information from the restaurants located in Empuriabrava, whether they close their doors in November or just a few weeks. The reason is simple, that many people do not even know and want to decide at short notice whether they want to close a few days, a couple of weeks or even a few months. We will now publish piece by piece the names of the stores that actually remain open. We'll look at it all and ask and then publish. The following restaurants and bars are certainly available to guests except for one week's rest: Capitan Restaurant, Taró Restaurant, Bacchus Pizza Restaurant on the outskirts, Paraiso Restaurant, Pago-Pago Restaurant, North Sud Restaurant, Tony's Bar, Siam Shiki ( Thai and Japanese restaurant), Port Philippe, Britannia, bistro-restaurants of the supermarkets Montserrat, pizzeria Tagliatella, restaurant Empordà, restaurant Pura Brasa, restaurant Enjoy, bar El Timoner and pizzeria Locanda, There will be added in the next few days we will try to publish the names as soon as possible.
