So back to Ibiza for my 6th time. This time staying at Jet Apartments in Playa Den Bossa. Our first time staying outside of San An. We will defiantly stay here again as the crowd is more our age 20+ and less of the 17 year old "wooping" you get in San An.
A group of friends we know from back home were on their last night as we were on our first. We decided to just go to the West End for cheap drinks instead of a big club. We all went to Tropicana where we normally just sit outside and people watch for our first few beers. Then we went to Flares (I think its called) for some stupid 80's dancing before ending the evening dancing away in Hush. Hush is my fav hang out in the west end.
The next day we headed to Ibiza Town as a few of the group have not been there before. We sat down at Zoo bar after a little walk around for some beers and some drinking games. Next thing we know the waiter comes over and says they are closing. Time went so fast we didn't have a clue it was 4am! It felt like we only sat in our seats for an hour let alone 4!!
On the Friday we spent the day by the pool and the beach. Then me and my mate headed over to Bora Bora at about 5pm. Music was awesome and we didnt leave til about 10ish, completely drunk and still dancing. After everyone was changed we headed for a few beers near the hotel then went to Fedde Le Grand takeover, Pure Pacha @ Pacha. Goldfish were on Live and they were awesome! Have never seen them before and will deff be looking out for CD's etc. Fedde Le Grand came on at 3-5 and played a good set. When Le Grand finished I had been dancing for pretty much 12 hours on just beer! Who needs pills eh
All in all a good night and a first visit to Pacha for many of the group. We choose this night as we didnt fancy being squashed like sardines for SHM and none of us like Guetta.
Saturday was a rest day chilled out by the pool and a few quite beers on the balcony in the evening.
Sunday for us was a biggie. We were all looking forward to seeing James Zabiela at We Love. We are all from Southampton so had to support local Southampton DJ's We hit Bora Bora with a crate of San Miguels about 5.

Then had a quick evening meal and more beers on the Balcony before heading over the road to Space at about 2:30am I showed the group all the rooms and we tried to find a friend who was in VIP watching Groove Armada. The room was packed so no chance of trying to find her. We ended up having some beers in El Salon as that was the only place really to chill and have some room to sit down. Zabiela was on at 4:30 - Close so at 4ish we headed to the Main Room and found our spot on the dance floor. Zabiela was awesome! Kept me dancing until the bitter end. The walk home in the sunshine in Ibiza is always a moment no-one forgets
On the Monday, None of us surfaced until about 4pm so we headed down to the pool for some "Breakfast" In the evening we headed to San An for the Sunset @ Sun Sea Bar. We prefer this place as its a bit more out the way and not over crowded like Mambo's.
After the Sunset we stayed at Sun Sea for some food. Then headed to Bay Bar towards San An Bay as this was our favourite place to hang out last year. They also make the best Mojitos!
Tuesday was out last day/night. We spent most the day in the pool or the sea catching our last rays before the MASSIVE prodigy gig at Ibiza Rocks. We payed for VIP tickets before we headed out not because we want to look "cool" but because I like to dance and get a beer easily without being stuck in a crowd unable to move. The Tickets were deff worth the extra money and the view was awesome. We arrived early to get a spot on the corner closer to the stage.
I was also next to the one and only Rave Baby!!! Who had the entire crowd following all his dance moves!

Now Prodigy.... They insisted on playing a 2 hour set and boy they were awesome! Best concert I have ever been to. I was constantly jumping up and down for the entire gig. Luckily my "tactical piss" before was well timed as I didnt need the toilet either 8)
Wednesday we flew home All flights delayed as French and Barcelona ATC were on strike. Ibiza airport was like a refugee camp! Luckily we have a friend who works for NATS (National Air Traffic Services) who had a word with some people in Europe and we took off with only 1 hours delay.
Now as I type this the Ibiza blues have well and truly kicked in!!!
This is my first review. Hope it isnt to bad!
