Tarragona

SO

oh my god where to start?

We boarded the coach which took about an hour to take us to La Fiesta de Léspluga and stepped off to such a cool atmosphere. Two stages, one entertaining loads of ballroom dancing elderly people which was jokes to watch AND join in with. We had some rums there and some shots for the road (the road to XENON) ch ch cha Xenon! and finally stumbled to the hellpit that is. The memory gets pretty blurry from here on in but I know we were definately dancing on the podium to Pananmericana and some girls in the crowd were trying to copy the dance which was cool and made us feel like we werent just wasted English fools but supercool dancers with moves to kill. Then in the toilet I was applying some lipstick and a woman said stop to me in Spanish and then i said why and she said something like you dont need anymore so i was like hd so i wrote something on the wall with it (wipe clean so its fine). Then we went back to the Festa (outside) and saw some of the old monitors and had some jokes with them trying to talk in Spanish and English combo (its so much easier to speak different languages when you are pissed :D) and i had some bites of something spicy and then we were sitting down at 5am waiting for everyone to meet up so we could start the mission and i was sick with my head inbetween my legs and Liam said it was really chilled out sicking. Then we walked to the train station to get to Taragonna haha and it felt like we were walking into the mountains and took a thousand years it was daylight and we were all still so pissed and then i woke up? (no memory of the train) and we were still at the train station but it was a different one and then half of the group went to the hostel but me Liam and Paul didnt get in the taxi. No. We went to get some SHOTS! so we bought some sweets from a supermaket which was really funny and then found a cafe where the man looked VERY dissaproving. I ordered three tequilas and he poured us THREE COFFEES: WRONG. How dare he? So we got whiskey in the end and left rapido. We then went in search of cocktails but Paul TRICKED me into saying the taxi would take us to cocktails when in fact it was taking us to the hostel to sleep. It took us to the wrong hostel and then we had to get to a different hostel but the group hadnt told us where they were so it was just missions.

We were standing outside talking drunkly about how we could possibly sneak into the hostel, when suddenly Catherine Wright came to the a window above us and was like WTF ?! so good that she did! anyway we just walked confidently in and went up to the room, the twin room, which now had 5 of us all in our underwear cos it was soooooooo hot (32 degrees at night) sprawled accross these two beds haha.

Woke up in PAIN. A lot of bruises. But went to the shopping centre and bought some treats and ate the most amaaaaazing all you can eat rainbow buffet which featured WATERMELON and CHICKPEAS and LENTILS and POTATOES and RADISHES and RED CABBAGE and BEETROOT and it was the best meal ever and afterwards (between four of us) we counted 8 empty plates, 5 bowls, and more. Then we filled takeaway boxes up with it and tried to leave but they busted us and were pissed off so i paid but the others had run away a little bit but it was fine cos we had it for dinner.

The sea was so good, so warm and the waves were really fun and the colour of the sea was blue and clear and SOOO salty that you can just float really easily :D

We went out for a well nice meal (outside) and i had grilled Salmon and we had loads of Sangria, then went to a bar and had irish coffees cos we needed to wake the fuck up after the death of the last night. Then we decided it was Liam´s birthday and all sang happy birthday and then went down to the Gay bars. OH MY GOD THE GAY BARS. 90% South American men standing around the edge hands on hips just LOOKing. SO weird. ALl the girls wearing nike draw string bags and one of them stood on my flip flop so it broke but luckily i could tie it together and the shots were all a euro and then me and Paul climbed up into a dancing CAGE and he just looked like a mental patient with a jumper hanging of his head and his eyes rolling back into his head! Liam started a fight haha but it was fine

Then everyone bailed and went to bed except me and Liam. We stayed in the bars for a while and then decided to leave and get a taxi to the hostel. A kind man offered us a lift in his car. I was like no no no we do not get into cars like this Liam but he was more drunk and i sensed it would be fine, so we did anyway and he had a dog in the car (called Luna) and the man started driving fucking OUT of Taragonna because he thought we had said HOTEL noria but we wanted HOSTEL noria so he was like QUE?! ¿QUE?! DONDE?¿! and we were like Mucho soz so finally got back to the hostel and i offered him money for his safe return of us to our quarters but he wouldnt accept. safe.

Today we beaaaaaaaaached it for ages and some of us have hilare tan and burn lines and we saw Catherine Nixon which was well good and had loads of sea time and ate a Grease sandwich for breakfast (and a watermelon slush puppy!) ice cream for lunch and Paella for din dins before getting the train back to Portaventura to meet the kids and go back to camp. THUNDER LIGHTENING RAIN AND AN ANT INFESTATION here at camp hahaaa. 3 of the girls in the room are dying their hair tonight!

Cant beleive how quickly that week just went, the whole 5 weeks in general actually. Less than a week left now!
