Boat Party

Holidays are always a good time... and sense most people are off work... some of the foreigners in the area decided to throw a boat party..........fantastic idea! And because its a holiday i was actually able to attend...where as these events are usually held on weekends when I work (like every beach party that will happen this year)

We started out early this morning (as in everyone was supposed to meet by 11:30am, but that was too early for some) and then headed out around 12. We were supposed to ride out to some little island and park there and party on the beach for awhile. But the boat driver wouldn't go there for some reason..... and just decided to park next to some really big boat and hook us up to it for awhile.

This actually worked out pretty well, there weren't to many people on the boat to make it crowded.. but there were enough to have lots people to talk to (maybe about 30 or so people). We hired a guy to BBQ for us on the boat, so we had constant food. Chris and a few other talented people provided random music with a few drums and guitars. And of course it didn't take long for people to start jumping in the water.

The current was a little strong.. so we had to stay pretty much attached to ropes to keep close to the boat.. and the water was a little cold.. but wonderful.  It was nice and sunny for most of the day.. but not to hot. A lot of people got pretty burned... but i guess i did a good job with the sunscreen or something... i luckily didn't get burned but i also didn't get any darker...

We stayed out there till about 6pm.. and then some of us went out for Thai dinner. All in all a pretty amazing day. Pictures will be on facebook soon. I sadly forgot my camera (i'm really bad about that). But plenty of people had a camera.
I decided waiting for the pictures is a bad idea... because if i do that i will never make the post.

  1. Attaching to a rope was a good idea. Who came up with that?

  2. I don't remember who thought of it.... probably the first guy that jumped in. I usually runs the boat parties.
