welcome! Welcome Dear readers, well it is hot hot hot here in the Costa Blanca so remember to protect your self well from the sun, it’s so important not to get burnt, perhaps consider a sun hat, they really do help and also come in handy when you need a short burst of air and use your hat as a fan. Check out our summer hat feature on page 30. August is traditionally the month of holidays with thousands of people flocking to the coast for sun, sand and sangria, literally you will see the streets packed with people walking to the beach and if you need to park your car you will find it hard to find a space anywhere! If you like it quieter and more secluded, head out to Villajoiosa, it’s only a few kilometres from Benidorm and is another world with quiet hidden beaches and chiringuitos .

Street Style Our photographer and fashion blogger scoured the streets of Benidorm for stylish people looking good in their summer style Nuestro fotógrafo y blogger de moda ha rastreado las calles de Benidorm para encontrar a 4 personas con un estilo propio, con un look de verano

6

Who? Ruben, age 18, from Callosa Was wearing? A Jack Jones t-shirt, H&M shorts and shoes from one of the many Benidorm shoe shops We love it because... The burnt orange t-shirt looks great on Ruben and he’s rocking the look with his cool shades. His casual summer style is completed with his blue pumps.

Who? Sandra, age 15, from Benidorm Was wearing? A Zara skirt, a vest top “borrowed” from her mum, Corte Fiel sandals and RayBans We love it because... This colour looks amazing on Sandra with her skin tone. She looks elegant and pretty in the sequined skirt, and the cute sandals and classic sunglasses tie the look together perfectly.

Who? Patricia, age 17, from Asturias Was wearing? An outfit from Pull and Bear and Converse We love it because... Her tonal turquoise look is very fresh, her Converse even match perfectly. Patricia is dressed perfectly for keeping cool in the heat, effortlessly stylish and her sunglasses complete the summer fashion vibe.

Who? David, age 18, from Callosa Was wearing? Springfield shorts, a Pull and Bear t-shirt and Adidas trainers We love it because... David shows how a simple T-shirt with classic denim shorts, teamed with trainers and the must-have mirrored sunglasses of the season is a great look for the guys in summer.

¿Quién es? Ruben, 18 años de edad, de Callosa Que llevaba puesto? Una camiseta de Jack & Jones, pantalones cortos de H & M y zapatos de una de las muchas zapaterías de Benidorm. Nos encanta porque... La camiseta color naranja quemada luce genial en Ruben y triunfa su look con esas gafas tan cool. Su estilo casual de verano se completa con sus bambas azules.

¿Quién es? Sandra, 15 años, de Benidorm ¿Que llevaba puesto? Una falda de Zara, un chaleco “prestado” de su mamá, sandalias de Corte Fiel y RayBans. Nos encanta porque... Este color luce increíble en Sandra con su tono de piel. Se ve elegante y bonita en la falda de lentejuelas, y sus bonitas sandalias y gafas de sol clásicas compaginan perfectamente.

¿Quién es? Patricia, edad 17, de Asturias ¿Que llevaba puesto? Un traje de pull & bear y unas Converse Nos encanta porque... Su look turquesa tonal es muy fresco, sus Converse coinciden perfectamente. Patricia está vestida perfectamente para mantenerse fresca en el calor, sin esfuerzo con estilo y sus gafas de sol completan el ambiente de la moda de verano.

¿Quién es? David, 18 años de edad, de Callosa ¿Que llevaba puesto? Pantalones cortos de Springfield, una camiseta de Pull and Bear y zapatillas Adidas. Nos encanta porque... David demuestra cómo una simple camiseta común con un pantalón corto vaquero, junto con zapatillas y las gafas de sol de espejo de la temporada es un buen aspecto para los chicos en verano.

Beach reads...

NYPD Red by James Patterson

Is It Just Me by Miranda Hart

The Mystery of Mercy Close by Marian Keyes

Vivien’s Heavenly Ice Cream Shop by Abby Clements

A fast read loaded with action, tension and taut writing. A crazed movie extra takes out his frustrations on actors and directors visiting the Big Apple turning into serial killer The Chameleon. NYPD Red are the elite group of officers charged with protecting the rich and famous.

Absorbing and full of laugh out loud moments, Miranda has written an uplifting and encouraging book. A light hearted holiday read comprising anecdotes and incidents, as we are addressed by her as “My dear reader chum”.

Helen Walsh is a broke, unemployed private detective who suffers from occasional bouts of depression. Her ex contracts her to find the missing member of boyband “Ladzz”. Keyes writing is quick witted and refreshing, giving us an insight into the mind of Helen and how she deals with life.

Imogen and Anna unexpectedly inherit their grandmothers Brighton icecream parlour. A blissfully escapist read, makes you want to eat lots of ice-cream and visit Italy

Libros para la Playa... NYPD Red por James Patterson Una lectura rápida cargada de acción, tensión y escritura buena. Un extra de película enloquecido paga sus frustraciones con actores y directores visita la gran manzana y se convierte en el asesino en serie el camaleón. NYPD Red son un grupo de élite de agentes especiales encargados de proteger a los ricos y famosos.

5 of the HOTTEST tracks right now Taylor Swift - Everything Has Changed ft. Ed Sheeran How could we possibly love our favourite girl and boy singer/songwriters even more? They could have a guitar jamming sesh and duet together! The lyrics are perfection, the vocal is sublime and this is bound to be one of the biggest songs of 2013. Chris Malinchak - So Good To Me The chill out vibe of this track is so imposing, it’s real place is a beach at 3am on a hot summers night but it also blends perfectly with a relaxing Sunday afternoon. Groove and smooch with the one you’re in love with. Also check out this track’s unbelievably cute music video of a little girl who has lost her pet giraffe. Rasel - Viven If you have been listening to the radio in Spain for longer than 5 minutes then it is almost guaranteed that you’ve heard this song. Whether you speak Spanish or not, you’ll be singing along (or at least trying to) and dancing around. This song is the perfect summer tune. Playing at full volume is a must. Snoop Lion - Ashtrays and Heartbreaks ft. Miley Cyrus Is he a dog? Is he a lion? Do we care when the music is this good? Miley Cyrus rocks the vocal on this track while Snoop Dogg always provides us with something amazing. Lounge by the pool with your headphones in and have a pool party of your own. Kelly Clarkson - People Like Us Another awesome tune from Kelly Clarkson, the American singer never fails to deliver something for us to dance around our living to, hairbrush in hand in our pyjamas. She’s the ultimate female rock chick and we love her to bits.

Film reviews Despicable Me 2 Plenty of eye-popping visual inventiveness and a number of big laughs. Gru... who tried to steal the moon in the first movie has retired from villainary and gone straight. He and the minions now make jam for a living. The minions steal the movie, even to the outtakes at the end. This Is The End This is a film for those with a dark sense of humour who can recognise a good parody. It basically centres around a bunch of twenty and thirtysomething Hollywood types who find themselves trapped in the throes of the apocalypse on the night of a house warming party in Los Angeles. Don’t read about it and spoil it, just go and see it.

14

World War Z This a grown up edition to the zombie genre, the film explodes right after the opening scenes and shows how frighteningly quickly a major American city falls into chaos. It is the most gratifying action spectacle in years and Brad Pitt pulls into the horror. Man of Steel While the background story is solid, the action sequences tend to be generic and bland. However, Superman’s return to the big screen is mostly successful and it is flashy and loud enough for the most demanding twelve year old.

www.vistacostablanca.com

Despicable me 2

Un alucinante espectáculo visual y una gran cantidad de carcajadas. GRU... que trató de robar la luna en la primera película se ha retirado del crimen y va por el buen camino. Gru y sus esbirros hacen mermelada para ganarse la vida ahora. Los esbirros son lo mejor de la película, incluso en las tomas falsas al final.

This is the end

Esta es una película para aquellos con un oscuro sentido del humor que pueden reconocer una buena parodia. Básicamente se centra en un montón de veinte y treinta-añeros estilo Hollywood que se encuentran atrapados en la agonía de la Apocalipsis en una noche en Los Angeles. No leas sobre él, lo estropearás, sólo ves a verlo.

World war Z

Es una version para adultos del género zombie, la

película explota nada mas empezar y muestra cuan

poco tarda una gran ciudad estadounidense en caer en

el caos. Es el espectáculo de acción más gratificante del

año y Brad Pitt nos arrastra al terror.

Man of steel

Aunque la historia es sólida, las secuencias de acción tienden a ser genéricas

y sosas. Sin embargo, la

vuelta a la gran pantalla

de superman por la mayor parte es exitosa, llamativo

y lo bastante emocionante

como para los más exigentes treceañeros.

10-18: Athletics World Championships Russian capital Moscow will host the 14th Athletics World Championships and many of the stars of 2012 will be on show in their first major tournament since the London Olympics. 26 August-8 September: US Open Andy Murray achieved the seemingly impossible at Flushing Meadows in New York in 2012, when he won his first major title and ended Britain’s 76-year wait for a male Grand Slam singles champion. The Scot has always liked the atmosphere and the courts in New York, and will be well fancied to defend his title. However, the familiar trio of Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will provide a daunting obstacle. Serena Williams always creates headlines at this event, both good and bad, but will be hard to stop in pursuit of a fifth title.

This months Horoscopes Aries Mar 21 - Apr 20 Take stock of what you’ve got today. That should largely be focused on material possessions, but you may also find it somewhat fruitful to think about your spiritual resources as well. Taurus Apr 21 - May 21 You’re not meeting expectations - you’re defying them! That could cause some folks to become alarmed, but just show them that you mean business and you should be able to get them to see reason. Gemini May 22 - June 23 A bit of news or gossip comes your way midday that may lighten your mood considerably -- and it was probably already pretty light! Keep the chain of communication intact to keep it that way. Cancer Jun 24 - Jul 22 Don’t take it personally when that close friend or family members totally misreads you today -- that kind of thing happens, and you’ve got to accept it for what it is. Gently correct them and move on. Leo Jul 23 - Aug 23 You’ve got a lot to talk about today and you should be surrounded by the right people. Try to generate interest in at least one of your big ideas, because things that get started today are winners. Virgo Aug 24 - Sep 22 Try to review the little details of your latest big project, something’s not quite right but you haven’t spotted the flaw yet. Once you do, fixing it shouldn’t be too much work, but it could delay progress. Libra Sep 23 - Oct 23 Your big brain is itching for something new so give it a great new idea or problem to solve! You may find that you spin off into new worlds of imagination, which is just what you need. Scorpio Oct 24 - Nov 21 Someone else offers to pay for today’s festivities -- and you may as well take them up on it! Sometimes you need to take a back seat and let someone else drive, and now is a great time to practice that. Sagittarius Nov 22 - Dec 21 A co-worker plays a big role in your personal drama today. That doesn’t necessarily mean a workplace romance, though it’s not out of the question, just that your lives are starting to blend. Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 20 You’re surrounded by a cloud of gossips and airheads today, there’s just no shaking them! You may be able to turn this problem into an asset if you can use them to distract your opposition. Aquarius Jan 21 - Feb 18 You have got to find a better way to get your message out, it’s not easy to break through the chatter! Fortunately, your great mental energy helps you to make your case this afternoon.

18

Pisces Feb 19 - Mar 21 You know that life is change and today proves that point over and over. You may be better suited to accept all the mutability, so look around and see if you can help someone close cope.

Horóscopo Aries marzo 21 - Abril 20 Alegrate con lo que tienes hoy. En gran parte deberías centrarte en las posesiones materiales, pero también puede resultar fructífero pensar en tus recursos espirituales. Tauro 21 de abril - 21 de mayo No estás cumpliendo con las expectativas - estás desafiándolas! Esto puede causar que algunas personas se alarmen, pero con sólo enseñarles que vas en serio deberías de ser capaz de conseguir que vean la razón. Géminis 22 de mayo - 23 de junio Alguna noticia o chisme que viene este mediodía puede alegrar considerablemente tu estado de ánimo y probablemente ya era bastante alegre! Mantén intacta la cadena de comunicación para mantenerlo así. Cáncer 24 de Junio - 22 de Julio No te lo tomes personalmente cuando ese amigo cercano o un miembro de la familia te malinterpreta totalmente,esas cosas pasan, y tienes que aceptarlo por lo que es. Corrígelos educadamente y sigue adelante. Leo 23 de julio - 23 de agosto Tienes mucho de que hablar hoy y debes estar rodeado de la gente correcta. Prueba a generar interés en alguno sobre tus ideas buenas, porque las cosas que empiezan hoy son ganadoras. Virgo 24 de agosto - 22 de septiembre Trata de repasar los pequeños detalles del último gran proyecto, algo no está bien, pero no has visto el defecto todavía. Una vez lo haces, arreglarlo no debería ser demasiado trabajo, pero podría retrasar el progreso. Libra Septiembre 23 - Octubre 23 Tu gran cerebro está ansioso de algo nuevo así que dale una nueva idea o problema a resolver! Puedes encontrar que te desvíes a nuevos mundos de imaginación, que es justo lo que necesitas. Escorpio 24 de Oct - 21 de Nov Si alguien se ofrece para pagar las festividades de hoy,dejales hacerlo! A veces necesitas tomar un descanso y dejar que alguien tome las riendas, y ahora es un buen momento para poner eso en práctica. Sagitario 22 de Noviembre - 21 de Diciembre Un compañero de trabajo juega un papel muy importante en un drama personal hoy. Eso no significa necesariamente que va a florecer un romance en el lugar de trabajo, aunque no este fuera de la cuestión, sólo significa que sus vidas están empezando a mezclarse. Capricornio 22 de Diciembre- 20 de enero Estas rodeado por una nube de chismes y cotilleos, no puedes deshacerte de ellos! Puede que seas capaz de convertir este problema en algo positivo si puedes utilizarlo para distraer a tu oposición. Aquario 21 de Enero - 18 de Febrero Tienes que encontrar una mejor manera de conseguir que tu mensaje llegue, no es fácil atravesar toda la tontería! Afortunadamente, tu gran energía mental te ayuda a hacer un buen trabajo esta tarde. Piscis 19 de Febrero-21 de Marzo Ya sabes que la vida siempre cambia y hoy se demuestra ese punto una y otra vez.

IBROX BAR BENIDORM The annual Orange walk in Benidorm has grown to now become another international event here in Benidorm attracting hundreds of visitors to participate in the historical event on the 12th July. Wilma and John Wallace from the Ibrox bar have been at the centre of this event since it started in 2005 along with the owners at the Golden Last, it has grown in numbers year after year and now is on the list of organised annual events in Benidorm and registered with the town hall. The march is to celebrate the victory of King William who defeated the Irish in 1690, flutes

and drums head the precession along with the colours of the Union Jack Flags and the bright Blue colours of Rangers Football club. Starting at the Ibrox bar the march went along to the Avenida Europa and back around to the Golden Last where a short remembrance was held for the tragic death of service man Lee Rigby who’s funeral was held in Bury Greater Manchester on the same day. Spectators who knew nothing about what the Orange March is all about looked on scratching their heads wanting to know why all of these people were having a fiesta!

Summer Hats Summer Hats for both men and women the perfect fashion accessory and essential in the direct sun. You may notice quite a few summer hats being worn by younger people men and women are both enjoying the difference in wearing hats and stepping up their fashion status as well as feeling comfortable in the sun.

LIKE POP MUSIC or sangria, wearing hats is one of the great, understated joys of summer. Besides providing sun protection, a hat can add nuance to your look. A baseball cap can lend a boyish charm to floaty sundresses. A bucket hat can bring a bit of insouciance to the overly glamorous, and a widebrimmed hat? Instant mystique Here is a selection of summer hats to give you some idea of what’s being worn this year.

Poppy and husband Karl decided to start a business specialising in children’s clothing collections that are far superior to most others available here in the Costa Blanca. Our front cover model Giovanni from La Nucia shows off the latest baby beach wear after attending the opening party at Poppy’s with mum and dad who found some great new stylish outfits for the summer days. The light fabric with a funky chequer pattern collar, sleeve and matching shorts. This cool little outfit cost under 20€ and also a saving of 25% with VISTA Card the Costa Blanca’s Free Discount Card. The shop is situated at the Avenida La Coloma Plaza Del Sol CV70 in La Nuica, the shop is open Monday to Friday 9am – 2pm & 4pm – 7pm Saturday 9am – 2pm.

THE ALGAR WATERFALLS Take a day out of Benidorm and head in to the mountains and visit the fabulous waterfalls of Algar. There is no other trip on the Costa Blanca quite like this and the inviting waters, stunning scenery and countless places to relax, make this a great day out for all the family. Set just 40 minutes outside of Benidorm on the mountain range of the Sierra Bernia, the natural waterfalls of Algar have for years been a popular tourist destination and with very good reason. The falls were featured in the Timotei advert and more recently ITV´s hit sit-com Benidorm and offer fun,

relaxation and a touch of excitement, for anyone who goes there. Once in to the falls, you will ascend the various levels that through the ages have been created by the rushing waters that have carved through the rock, leaving pools and lagoons that you can swim in. There are diving points where you can plunge in to the cascading waters or for those a little less daring, you can relax in one of the pools or lagoons as the water sweeps gently past you. This really is nature´s own water park and Round Town Travel offer you the best way to visit it and spend a day out of Benidorm. With various pick up locations in Benidorm commencing in the morning at 10:00am,

you will be collected to the closest point to where you are staying. All of the coaches used by Round Town Travel are air-conditioned and are accompanied by an English guide who will give you useful bits of information about the area en route. Once there, you will be given approximately three and a half hours free time to explore and enjoy yourself, giving ample time to see everything and even have a spot of lunch. This fantastic trip runs every Wednesday & Friday and costs just 17.50€ per adult and 15.00€ for children between the age of 4-12. The cost includes transport, entrance to the falls and a complimentary drink. Under 4´s go free!

To book this trip, visit any of the Round Town Travel offices at: Rincon de Loix; opposite the Hotel Melia. Calle Gerona; opposite the Western Saloon / Hotel Ambassador. The Round Town Trips stall on the Wed & Sunday market (aisle E). Yvonne at the indoor market, by phone on 0034 966 867 294 or online at www.roundtowntravel.com

Susana Hermosell Córdoba, propietaria de “50s Grooming Salon” en La Cala de Finestrat, fue entrenada profesionalmente como una “groomer” de mascotas en Milán, donde estudió y trabajó en varios centros de peluquería prestigiosos. Regresó a España en 2007 y a principios de 2008 se incorporó a la clínica de Qalivet, donde ya tiene una larga lista de clientes que aprecian su trabajo cuidadoso y excelente manejo de

sus mascotas. Ha trabajado extensivamente con todas las razas y trata a cada perro con gran cuidado y es una experta en mano-tijereteo, estilo y recortes. Abrir su propio salón de peluquería ha sido una ambición de toda la vida, donde ella se mantiene repleta de sus productos de calidad en su tienda como el alimento seco Arden Grange junto con una serie de artículos esenciales de los animales domésticos.

Spanish Fish ‘n’ Chips? Yes it’s true you can now find real Spanish fish n chips at the new tapas bar “Tabernita del Sur” located at the top of the famous tapas alley opposite La Cava Aragonesa Old Town Benidorm. Not only will you be amazed at the choice of fresh traditional cuisine from the region of Andalucia but also the fish n chips are actually wrapped up in paper just like the old days. A perfect cone shape which is easy to hold and enjoy on the go or to sit down and share with friends. The cone is known as a cucurucho and is a popular way of serving food in the south of Spain with a mixture of foods that then can be shared by tearing open the cone and using the paper to spread out onto the table. The fish is a white fish called Merluza (Hake) and is cooked in a secret recipe, marinated then fried in a light batter in

olive oil, served in little pieces that are easy to pick up along with the thin crispy fries. If you like to try other dishes then my recommendation is the tear drop chicken and the Gambitas Rojas eaten whole in a light crispy batter. It was strange at first to eat a whole Gambita (baby prawn) head and tail on but apparently that’s the way to get all of the flavour and taste. I was more comfortable with the chicken pieces really tasty and moist, perfect with a nice cold Spanish beer. I really do recommend this style of eating it’s a great way for meeting up in a group having beers with the tasty food in an informal setting but filled with a traditional Spanish atmosphere and music.

Hair loss

Hello, I am Dr. Gustavo Salinas an expert in aesthetic medicine. I have been helping many patients to regain their hair. But before I explain how to get strong and healthy hair, let me clear things up with a story. Marlen is a patient who emigrated to Spain 10 years ago. She noticed that a few months ago she started losing hair, she tried everything to solve her problem and decided, finally, to try treatment in aesthetic medicine. What stands out the most in this story is that when she returns to her country of origin on vacation, she stopped losing her hair. Now it looks voluminous, bright and strong. I had to explain to Marlen, that the health of her hair depended on blood supply to the follicles, in the same way that a flowerpot (follicle) plant (hair) depends on irrigation. Adrenaline, I explained, is responsible for the lack of irrigation in the hair. The hair is devitalized and ends up falling out forever; she didn’t lose hair in her own country of origin, I told her, because she’s calmer with less adrenaline in her hair. Stress affects us all, high adrenaline is common, everyone

Advertise here for as little as 60â‚Ź per month should have treatment to avoid definitive hair loss before it leaves us bald. There is a secret treatment that is only known by those dedicated to aesthetic medicine, known as Mesotherapy, which is local inoculation of medicine through micro punctures that improve the circulation of the follicle and adds vitamins that strengthen the hair. Treatment should start as soon as possible to keep hair strong and beautiful in women and men from 18 especially if they tend to be bald by genetics from their parents or who see baldness developing early in siblings. Treatment costs 100 euros per session of Mesotherapy, this also includes free stress treatment through breathing exercises that you will learn in three minutes and practically no longer suffer from deterioration and disease produced by stress. From that moment on, it will decrease excess adrenaline, the main cause of hair loss. If you have a black VISTA card, at LASER MEDICAL you will be entitled to a 50% discount (50 euros), for the first 40 patients showing their card
