At last December, and 2011, comes to an end, a year that for many has been like an obstacle race. 2012 arrives with everybody’s hopes pinned on solving such acute problems as unemployment and the stagnant economy, not only on the national scene, but also the whole of Europe. But, as they say, whilst there are expectations and the will to live, there is hope, based on our tourist industry, on our new government, and on the imminent start to the construction of the new La Bajadilla Marina which will be a huge economic boost for Marbella.
As we do every year, in this edition nº 101 of the D&N Magazine-Guide (Day and Night) we give you a practical comparative guide to the different options for celebrating with company dinners and New-Year parties, as well as the various leisure options such as excursions, theatre, the 30th edition of the Marbella Trade Fair, Christmas concerts, the Moscow Ballet with “Swan Lake”, and a variety of exhibitions in the Cultural Centres and Museums of the town. I would highlight the practical gastronomic information included in the selection of restaurants, the “gourmet’s corner” and “tapas” and also to recommend a visit to some of the many museums of our area, listed on page 56. These items mentioned, and many more, can be found on our online edition at www.guiamarbella.com
