Well here is my review of my trip last year full of biscuits, romance and drama.
I will try and make it as brief as possible so you don’t get bored
02JUL - Sat
It was a beautifully warm late Saturday evening as I was chilling in the garden and the time had finally came to tell the rest of the guys on the group whatsapp chat that I was on my way! I jumped in the car and wacked the chilled house on full chat. When I eventually got to Luton airport I met my brothers and their mates (I was tagging along) by Burger king and headed through to departures. While walking around the departures lounge I heard someone shout “Yes boy!”
I turned to see my best mate and another mate sitting in a restaurant cracking up with a beer in their hand….I walked over confused and laughing to ask them what the hell they’re doing and where they are going to be told Ibiza!! The buggers had kept it totally quiet from me! We all had a right chuckle of how they kept it hush and how glad I was they were coming (Their first time)
The group became nine and we all boarded a loud on time easy and arrived into Ibiza shortly after midnight local and all headed to our hotels. Some were in the Azuline, some were in the Galera but my two mates who turned up as a surprise rang me about 2am furious as they had some shit hole. After refusing to stay at the hotel they agreed to stick them in their sister hotel the Don Pepe instead which was a relief for them!
03JUL – Sun
So after a group breakfast and a few chilled drinks in San An we all decided to jump on a bus to Bora Bora. So we got our tickets and were told there was a change of bus and the driver would let us know when the change stop came so off we jumped at this bus stop oblivious to where we were exactly and with us a handful of other people also trying to do the same thing. After standing about baffled and missing a couple of buses we decided to ask a local policeman who told us it was a 20 minute walk that way so off we went. After a stop for some alcoholic drinks we eventually rocked up to Bora in what must have taken about 3hours to get too! This is when it started getting really messy
We managed to secure a seating area and table close to the dance floor and the drinks were flowing and what a superb setting and atmosphere it was. The music got us randomly two stepping, the shot girl getting caught into 20 minute convos without managing to sell us one shot. My mate got chatting to a pair of women 10 years older than him. We told another mate that you had to pay the freshen up guy 3 euro to use the toilet in which he didn’t hesitate to do and off he went with the coins in his hands which left us bursting. You can get the idea of what sort of afternoon it was. Nine of use ended up being about 13 (If you want to include the odd dealer that took a seat). It was just an afternoon full of banter, a bit of dancing and some great music
Anyway we left about 10 to head back to get changed as we had Amnesia tickets to see Vegas and Like Mike. (I wanted to do Pacha instead but a selfish mate purchased the Amnesia ticket so we all ended up just saying sod it lets all go since it is our first night out together). We all jumped in 3 taxis and on the way back we could hear a local over the radio and loud commotion in the back ground. It turned out to be one of the taxis with my mates in….They had broken out into an argument over nothing! Dehydration and too much alcohol obviously!. Luckily they got returned to San An without getting kicked out but my mate had his genuine ray bans thrown out the window which we all ended up bursting out laughing…It was the thought of his sun glasses getting chucked out in a childish move and sitting there in bits on the side of the road. Thankfully they made up and we all got changed and met up at the Azuline by the bus stop
My two mates who had a fall out started moaning and saying they were gonna give it a miss as they were so rough. I told them to get a full litre bottle of water through them and not to worry as once they got there and took a biscuit they would be off like a steam train! So we all rocked up to Amnesia and took and obligatory picture together by the bus and entered. We all knew what was up and cracked on where as the two worse for wear mates were struggling to get into the swing of things….After they took half a biscuit I said just wait lads you will be all smiles. So there we were all stood and I could feel the hairs on my neck starting to stand and I was getting into the music. I would have preferred to be somewhere else but I just decided to make the most of it and it was just the first proper night so what the hell! After about 30 mins we were all smiles and loving life and even my mates who were shot started coming up and I could see their smiles growing. We all ended up arm in arm singing away to some Lost frequencies loving life. As the night progressed and the room became busier we ended up with two girls joining me and my best mate which made the night that bit better. I was just off with the girl for the best part of 3 hours! During that time I looked over at my best mate who was basically just kissing her for what he probably thought was a minute but I am sure it was like 60 minutes!! During all the dancing, the smoke and smiles we realised one of our mates had gone missing and we realised none us had seen him for quite some time and we all became a little concerned since it was his first time Ibiza on the biscuits….So off me and my best mate looking for him around the bars, the smoking area and the toilets and couldn’t find him. We all agreed that we reckoned he would be fine and would turn up he is a big boy….So me and my best mate headed back to the dance floor and cracked on! I ended up back with the girl I was dancing with and somehow my mate ended up with another random girl! His previous dance partner was not impressed! Then through the smoke and lights and as we pushed forward on the dance floor….There was our missing mate with a huge smile on his face punching the ceiling with some randoms! We all chuckled and checked on him to let him know we was there. He nodded and dismissed us as he was far too concerned with enjoying his night with his new found Spanish mates and dancing!!. Due to my mates ex dance partner getting the arse and being a mate of my female dance partner they ended up leaving us but not before she could eat my face off and take my mobile number…
