and
then we went south. we went to the beach at brela and played TABLE
TENIS. simon says it was the ping pong game of the year. it was so
intense that al ripped a hole into his swimsuit. makarska was next
on the agenda. we planned to camp, but, once again, then there was
rain. fortunately, we found an apartment that totally rocked our
worlds. simon got to have a bubble bath, i got to play piano, and
tim had his own dance floor. he tried to teach me salsa but i just
couldn't swing my hips in the right way. simon made a nice and
delicious dinner, followed by, what has become my favorite drink:
swedish coffee. we had a pre-party with fronda AND I learned to
play plump (and, for the record- i won!)
we
went out on the town. spat some beats, and beatboxed until we
stumbled upon the perfect party scene. the boys were happy because
the bar projected the next closest thing you can find to porn, on a
huge screen on the bar. then, tim laid the moves on the pretty
ladies sitting across from us at the bar when he asked them for a
light. that is how we met the crazy norwegian girls. the girls
introduced us to a drinking game involving ice cubes and lip
locking. that set the mood for the rest of the night. the boys
showed neil strauss how it was done. to varying degrees. we also
tried to go to this bar in a cave but there was no one there. but
that didn't put an end to our night. we went back to the bar. simon
mysteriously disappeared, the rest of us continued to drink and
have heart to hearts.
the
bar closed. but we were not done yet. we had an afterparty. i can't
really tell you how it was because i passed out pretty quickly.
these party animals were too much for me to handle. BUT I heard
that the lights did not go out until the sun came up (around 5:30
or so). About 3 hours later, Al burst into the room singing morning
has broken. that did NOT rock my world. the four of us (and one
norwegian girl haha) scrambled to get our act together. we only had
about 25 minutes to pack up everything and head out to go rafting.
we were all either terribly hung over, or, still drunk.
but
we made it. just. we were there with 2 minutes to spare. they were
there 30 minutes late. so we had breakfast bottoms up on the side
of the road and then we went rafting. we had the 2 best guides in
croatia : tony and alex. they took us through one of the most
picturesque and serene places in the world. i felt as though i was
in a fairytale. the rapids we really cool, and we cruised through
the water without difficulty. if any of us were still hungover (and
there should be no doubt in your mind that we were) we had a wake
up call when we went into a cave, which was filled with ice cold
spring water. we had to swim across a pool of water when were in
the cave. it was sooo crazy--- and yes al- it WAS for real. after
the cave, al and simon jumped off a 5 metre cliff. no big deal. tim
and I (the smart ones) stayed dry. when it was all over, we
destroyed a bag of chips (our hunger had gotten the better of us)
and then went for grilled sandwiches. we have spent the rest of the
day driving through the mountains and countryside trying to find a
spot to camp. we have found one. we're actually just drinking beer
in the car as we try to mount the courage to set up the tent. we'll
see when that happens. ummmm yeah. all in all a great day.
beautiful. we're taking it easy tonight (i expect) so that we're
ready to go crazy for al's birthday party tomorrow. in split. so be
ready for some crazy stories. LOVE to all of simon's friends and
readers. `katie
