Welcome to the August and September edition of Out and About Magazine Costa Blanca, now the summer weather is at its hottest with temperatures over 30 degrees great for beachgoers who love the fresh sea breeze and dipping in the waves. It is a time to wear lots of sun protection, drink plenty of water and stay in the shade as much as possible. Spain in the summer reaches that more uncomfortable level but it is also one of the busiest times of the year. We hope that you will enjoy reading our articles and find out more about the fiestas in Costa Blanca. Our handy-size printed version of Out and About magazine is found at local bars, cafes, shops, and restaurants. Please tell the advertisers where you have seen them so that they can appreciate even more the popularity of our 16-year-old publication.

4 | OUT AND ABOUT COSTA BLANCA<br />

Dear Reader<br />

The summer atmosphere is<br />

fantastic <strong>and</strong> really pleasing to<br />

the Costa Blanca is busy<br />

with the holiday season.<br />

Hopefully we can get<br />

through this year’s summer<br />

with some enjoyable times.<br />

However, the excitement of<br />

the holidays are here with<br />

people enjoying everything<br />

that Spain offers.<br />

However, not all are welcoming<br />

the heat. Quite a few people are suffering<br />

the high temperatures <strong>and</strong> humidity.<br />

Also, beware of the “downsides”; yes too<br />

much sun, not enough drinking water<br />

<strong>and</strong> too much alcohol, all can spoil your<br />

holiday. Although “al fresco” eating on<br />

the summer days <strong>and</strong> evenings can be<br />

quite relaxing <strong>and</strong> enjoyable.<br />

For those born from <strong>August</strong> 1st to<br />

<strong>August</strong> 22nd, they are members of the<br />

Leo zodiac signs. As one of the zodiac’s<br />

most attention-seeking signs, a Leo can<br />

most likely be identified as a most natural<br />

“star”. People born from <strong>August</strong> 23rd to<br />

<strong>August</strong> 31st are members of the Virgo<br />

sign.<br />

The most compatible signs with Leo<br />

are generally considered to be Aries,<br />

Gemini, Libra <strong>and</strong> Sagittarius. The least<br />

compatible signs with Leo are generally<br />

considered to be Taurus <strong>and</strong> Scorpio.<br />

<strong>August</strong> has two birthstones: the Peridot<br />

<strong>and</strong> Spinal Peridot. The Peridot is one<br />

of the oldest known gemstones with it’s<br />

signature lime green colour, is believed to<br />

DEAR READER<br />

instill power <strong>and</strong> influence in the wearer.<br />

Spinel is available in a brilliant range of<br />

colours <strong>and</strong> is believed to protect the<br />

owner from harm <strong>and</strong> soothe away<br />

sadness.<br />

<strong>Out</strong> & <strong>About</strong> Costa Blanca<br />

magazine keeps modern <strong>and</strong><br />

lively by introducing new<br />

ideas each month <strong>and</strong> keeping<br />

each edition interesting. We are<br />

privileged to have experienced<br />

professional journalists covering<br />

all interesting subjects <strong>and</strong> would like<br />

to take this opportunity of thanking<br />

our gifted writers for their welcomed<br />

expertise that our readers so enjoy <strong>and</strong> I<br />

receive many compliments to this effect.<br />

Also there are other people involved<br />

from the Graphic Designing to the<br />

Distribution team all need a “Big Thank<br />

You”.<br />

The sun is a fabulous source of vitamin<br />

D, its makes you feel happy <strong>and</strong> relaxed<br />

but too much of a good thing really can<br />

be dangerous! So always wear a hat, put<br />

on some sunscreen, sunglasses <strong>and</strong> sip<br />

that yes water! Then sit back with your<br />

favourite magazine as you are never<br />

alone with an “<strong>Out</strong> & <strong>About</strong>”.<br />

Keep Cool, Happy <strong>and</strong> Smiling.<br />
