Both stores are announcing openings for November, which is to be expected with the holidays just around the corner. The Hollister store, an Abercrombie & Fitch brand, gets its inspiration from Souther California. On their website they categorize men and women´s wear using surfer lingo - DUDES and BETTYS. Hollister already plastered a huge banner on the second floor (planta 1) of the second phase next to Bennetton announcing their big entrance. The Apple Store, on the other hand prefers to be more secretive and only has the entrance to their store boarded up in gray. No announcement, no hints...but we know it´s going to be on the first floor (planta 0) right as you enter the shopping mall. It´s where Habitat used to be. So start saving up for the holidays, because it´s going to be a big one! Click here to read more... * Amazon.ES finally launches! The Amazon.es website has finally launched - 15 years after Amazon.com, but it doesn´t matter. It´s still a great thing. The website promises to have many interesting books, CDs, DVDs and other items in other languages. I checked myself to see if they had the latest English novel from a series that my daughter is totally into and, YES!, they have it. So, go ahead, and start placing your orders. They should be at your door in no time. * Costa Lengua Costa Lengua is a private language service which offers comprehensive courses in both English and Spanish. They offer private tutoring to those who have a genuine interest in learning Spanish or English as a foreign language. Their influence reaches throughout the Costa del Sol and is available to those who wish to take individual one-on-one lessons and those who prefer to learn in a group. Click here to read more... * Online Library – Analot.com We just got this posting in today about Analot.com, which is an online library for books, toys and DVDs in Spanish and English. No need to buy these things anymore...you just rent them. We think it´s a brilliant idea! Don´t forget the power of the BUZZ! Please tell your friends and family about our newsletter or to follow us on Twitter or Facebook.
Thank you... and see you next Friday.
