Beach party...

Wow. Can I just tell you how ridclious this party was! So we get a very early-noon-ferry to the island. Very early considering it was New Years, and we have no place to stay, and would be forced to stay up all night...on hte beach. Ohh, and yes it was absolutely DUMPING rain. Perfect for an all night beach party right? So we arrive, it lets up a bit-and we stake out a place to waste the day at. Found a restaurant that was playing Friends, and then movies. Friends wasn't so bad, at least we could nap. So we wasted the day doing that and checking out our home for the night. The beach is just a massive bar. Bucket bar, after bucket bar. They were setting up dance platforms, and structures all up and down the beach. At about 9 or so that night we headed out to start this all nighter...
Headed to the beach after locking up all our stuff in some lockers we found. Stopped by trusty 7-11 for our first few rounds and off to the mayhem. So we rocked out drinking buckets, and beers all night. We went up to the mountain bar and had some more 'drinks' and danced the night away. Almost every bar had different music. Classics, base and drum, techno, hip-hop you name it-well not country :) We all agreed to meet back up for the countdown, and of course Luke the pyro had some fireworks, and we celebrated with many hugs and kisses, and a nonstop fireworks show for quite a while. This continued till daylight.....
Once the skies became light, me being me, had to start help cleaning up this beach. So wrong. It was a fucking mess. It was a futile effort, but I recruited a few folks a did a lil patch where we sitting at. And the first few feet of the ocean pretty much was the boys room, so no morning swim :)
We stumbled into a place for a bite to eat and waited for a place to open so we could rest until 10, so we could get a taxi back to the ferry station. And of course since it's Thailand, we were about 3 hours off schedule, and got home around 3 in the afternoon. After a shower, some pizza, and a couple of movies, and no sleep yet- I'm ready for another beer. Rally anyone?
Hope everyone had a great New Years, but I can honestly say this was hands down, the best New Years yet. 2009 will kick some major ass. See you all in about 26 days
love and kisses-m
