Well I’ve officially finished my first week on the
boat. Technically, I’m half way through
the second as we chat. But wow what a
week it was. I am completely and utterly
shattered, nursing a throat infection and trying to perform a job of
communicator without a voice. I know,
how the hell am I going to survive the next 11 weeks??!!!
With the most amazing two groups of people on the boats I
could have asked for, I felt compelled to indulge just a little too much last
week…..
Crazy Mlini Family

Almissa Blu family (minus crazy Aussie boys)
Starting in Dubrovnik, I met the crazy Almissa Blu crew the
night before we sailed. Little did I
know just how crazy they would be, especially when combined with a group of
insane young Aussie guys, looking for a good time of booze, sun and girls. Mix in some more Aussies, a few kiwis, a couple of English girls and
then some more Aussies, this would be a week like no other, one I will never
forget and one that I’m sure is very patchy for everyone else!
Most mornings started with triple vodkas at 8am for my
adopted son, Dom (below) and it wasn’t too long before the others all joined
in. However, it was the crew that
instigated the 6am Jack Daniels party, where 4 bottles disappeared within a few
hours. Now most people would be horrified
by this, but with the naked dances from Dom, the gossip about snuggles from
Tegan, the slug crawl by Joel, high kicks by Jack, the drunken slurs from
Kearney, sexual grinding dances from Rocky and the daily appearance of Shaz
(aka Susan), life was never dull on Almissa Blu.
Dom loving life
My other boat, Mlini at first glances appeared a little
tamer. What a stupid assumption. These guys’ gave the other boat a run for
their money with daily “Kings Cup” expeditions, coupled with nicknames for
everyone that, if forgotten, resulted in a consumption of your entire
beverage. Now I’m not very good with
names to start with, but after learning actual names the first day, this task
was much more difficult. There sure was
a lot of finger pointing. I enjoyed
seeing this boat in action as there was a little bit of incest going on, but
what a wonderful love story for Jitterbug and Doug and Terd and Al Pacino. Will these couples continue or was it just a
week long fling?? I will keep you posted….
Mlini’s less finer moment was in Stari Grad, where we embark
on a Wine Tasting expedition. The boat
was conveniently sloshed before even arriving into port, so the wine just slid
on down. And down, down, down quite a
few more bottles went, before some of the guys thought they’d become a little
invincible. Sandybox, Al Pacino, the
Doctor and others decided jumping off the roof into the vineyards would be a
wonderful idea, effectively ending our welcome at the winery. I don’t think anyone was too fazed though,
because happy hour was on the boat, so party on!!
Wine Tour in Stari Grad
I have had the most incredible experience last week, met
some amazing and beautiful people, got to visit the gorgeous places along the
coast of Croatia and really couldn’t have asked for a smoother ride. Some of these guys will be my friends for life
and wow it makes me cherish how incredibly lucky I am to be working in Croatia
on this party trip back and forth for the summer. Tough gig that’s for sure.
Until next update…
