Had booked a mini weekend to Ibiza with 2 friends... turned into a mini disaster but with some good times too
Thurs 24th
On checking my flight online realised there was a French air traffic strike. Then my friend phoned up - her Easyjet flight from Gatwickhad been cancelled. Only option was for her to fly next day from Manchester with Jet2 at her own expense (train, hotel, flight) but she went for it.
We arrived at Stansted for our 5pm flight, seemingly not delayed, only to then sit on the plane for 2 hours.... catching Luciano at Sands slipped further and further away as we waited.... and waited. Finally took aff at 7.30pm
Arrived in Ibiza 10.30 pmto TORRENTIAL rain. Not to worry we thought, soon be at La Plage. Made way to the Club Don Toni - nothing more could go wrong - only to find they had no record of our (Spotlight booked) reservation. It was now 11pm and I had of course not printed the reservation number (doh) but it was on my email. Iphone promply ran out of battery whilst looking for it. Anway they gave us a room and said theyd contact Spotlight next day to sirt it (which to their credit they did!)
Off to meet Morbyd and Agent Undercover and friends at Luciano only to find power had blown and it had stopped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
So off to Bora Bora for a few drinks and then got toally soaked walking home in the rain for an early ish night (well 3am)
Fri 25th
SUN CAME OUT!!! Felt in better mood when I went to reception and found they had sorted the reservation. Friend turned up and all looking good. Got some lunch at Sands and foudn out Deadmau5 was playing there later, had never seen him so thought might as well pop along.
It was pretty busy when he came on about 7ish, and he did a few stints with the mouse head on etc. Quite liked the music which I didnt think woudl be to my taste, but thry had to turn it right down about 10.30 which was a shame so we went up to Bora Bora for a few.
Then heard DJ Sneak was at Ushaia, which we ran down to catch the last hour. It was PACKED and great music... not sure how they got away with the high volume tho hmmmmm
Then off to Privilege for Supermartxe via a few bars in PDB. Have not been to Privilege since 1997 and it was amazing. yes the music was cheesy but just the right amount of people etc and we had a great spot at front of the pool!
Then my (new) iphone got stolen out my bag - at the time I didnt really care, shows how much I was enjoying it!!!! Anyway I was more annoyed as it had some great videos of earlier in the night than anything else, at least its insured but BE CAREFUL as there is a lot of phone (esp iphone) theft going on.
Left Privi at 6am battered and ready for bed.
Sat 26th
Stayed in bed till 9pm then up changed and went to Pacha for Defected closing. Arrived 1.30pm, straight in to some good tunes from Miss Divine. Sat on terrace for half hour or so, only to go back into main room to hear the biggest pile of ****e being played by Mr Sinclar.... it was some Shabba recoed and Bob Sinclar is in da houuuuse being shouted over the top. Shame. Left at 3.30 unable to stand any more. Stupid busy in non vip sections too.
Toyed with Cafe Ole as we walked past Space but thought better of it!!!
Sun 27th
Chilled by pool, toyed with We Love closing, decided against it. Early night oops.
Mon 28th
Spent a lovely day at Es VIve using the Spa and having some well needed food!!! Flew home on a very uneventful flight
Even with the disastrous start I will still be back next year hehe
