Moors & Christians

Having witnessed many fiestas whilst living in Spain I can honestly say they are great fun. I am hoping to find time to attend this one in Mojacar and look forward to meeting old friends there.

The Moors and Christians



The Moors and Christians Festival is one of the major celebrations in Spain's calendar, with a mixture of religion, history and street carnival. Battle re-enactments take place throughout different city districts at different times of the year. The Festivals of the Moors and Christians in Mojacar, Almeria is on 11th 12th and 13th June 2010. If you have never witnessed one of these Fiesta's we would encourage you to do so, it really is a wonderful occassion to enjoy.

"what is going on?"

What with all the comings and going lately with Volcanic Ash, problems in Greece and the General Election in the UK you could well be thinking what on earth is going on. Is this the reason why so many people are here in Spain at the moment enjoying the sunshine and snapping up great properties at fantastic prices?
You could be wondering how recent events might effect the value of the Euro or Sterling and is there anything you can do to protect yourself? Although nobody knows for sure the future value of the Euro or Sterling. If you are thinking of investing in a property overseas in the near future, you just might want to get some advice from the experts.
Currency exchange company Moneycorp offers the most competitive exchange rates. As well as fixed exchange rates for settlements in the future, protecting you from adverse currency movements and allowing you to lock into favourable exchange rates. This could potentially save you thousands.

Another great savings idea if you are planning to come to Spain for a holiday and need to hire a car is to start planning now. Last year there was a shortage of cars for hire and some people either missed out altogether or found themselves paying double or even treble the normal amount. If you have already booked your flights or are about to, why not get a quote? We think you will find our car hire prices a pleasant suprise.
