My ears pop like a mothef*cker. Ever since I was a kid I’ve had this problem. And then I feel deaf for like 3 days after landing. I don’t know why. I’ve chewed gum and all those remedies. It used to work. Now I’m resigned to feeling like someones cooking popcorn in my fucking head on ascents and descents. I still like to fly though, it’s part of the whole experience.

Had a good time out there in Spain. We started out in Lloret de Mar. It’s a cool little coastal city on the Costa Brava. It’s pretty damn good but it also depends on what you’re going out there for. We pretty much just chilled and partied in this city. We were only here for 4 days and we missed out flight so it was a little more like 3. I’m not the best at taking pictures to record memories but when I get somewhere with unlimited bandwidth (not my house) I’m going to fill up my Flickr with a set from Espana.

Lloret is quite small and full of people looking to party. If you’re trying to be surrounded by Spanish people and go on like a traditional Spanish trip I probably wouldn’t have gone here. Here was our schedule for the first few days: Beach – Party – Sleep – Beach – Party – Sleep. The beach looks nice, and it is nice. But it ain’t sand. It’s shingles, these little tiny rocks.

Our hotel didn’t like us, we made too much noise or something. It was us, and old people. Lloret had a strip of just clubs, and beach, places to eat, some rocks, lots of watersports, and hotels. A city made for fun.

So we paid 40 euros for unlimited beer and unlimited sangria and food on this boat ride with our guide named Julio. Think of like the cliche Spanish guy named Ricardo that you see on TV, and then change his name to Julio. Thats him. At the end of the boat ride he started dancing, swiveling his hips, and being fruity. I’d have joined in as everyone else was doing the Macarena but I was too sick from the cheap Sangria. The picture above is Lloret from the boat, and the picture below is me and Salim after snorkeling to a set of rocks. Breathing kind of underwater was a surreal experience for someone like me. I was hyperventilating till I got the hang of it.

Stupid lamppost.

And in those little shops. Never pay full price for anything, they be trying to rip you off. Can’t hustle a hustler ya get me. And people over here be hustling hard as hell.

*JUST WANTED TO UPDATE MY EMAIL WENT OUT OF COMMISSION FOR A FEW DAYS WHILE I WAS THERE. IT WORKS NOW.
