Not good news for the Medieval Market

Next Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Orihuela will be staging its annual Medieval Market.

Those who have been in the past will remember times when the wind has been an issue. One year, it was so strong that the opening was postponed and a number of the stalls were blown down.

The forecast for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd is not good. Sunday looks to be the better of the three days but even then it could be too windy for some.

From past occasions, we know that Saturday and Sunday are normally very busy with plenty of visitors crowding the narrow streets. However, if you stand and watch, you will observe many are just out to socialise. They may stop for some food or a drink but will pass by the many stalls without even giving them a second glance.
