Day 6: Sun 20th July 1997

Everyday we get up later than the day before.  At this rate we will never actually make it out of bed at all.  Today though is of course Sunday so it's allowed.  When we got up we went to the pool.  We seem to be able to have endless fun seeing who can sit on the bottom of the pool the longest and who can do the best handstands.  We are having a lot more fun than it sounds - honest!!!  After sunbathing, reading, watching the people around us and sitting on the pool floor the hunger pangs struck.  Hunger seems to be hovering just around the corner the entire time here, it just seems to be a battle of the wills over who will cave first and admit they're hungry.  After I finally caved, we left the pool and headed to the shop to again buy the essentials.  A new item on the list of essentials is the apple schnapps - at just over £2.50 I think it should head every one's shopping list, even the Sangria can't compete with that.  It is a strange world when 3 litres of cheap Spanish wine becomes too expensive compared to a bottle of liquor.  We returned to the flat to eat and prepare for The British Quiz Night later on.

The British Quiz Night never actually happened.  For once we managed to get out of the flat at the time we had arranged, meaning we were a whole hour early for the quiz.  However, instead of a quiz we were subjected to an incredibly crap Brummie DJ, hoards of kids - most of which were smoking and drinking, and a general feeling of being too old.  So after a while, feeling a bit merry we went to Gordon's.  We stayed at Gordon's for only one drink, but then we didn't really need anymore than that.  We also again succeeded in confusing the waiter, this time by Jo rambling very loudly about straws and jealousy.  After Gordon's we did what any normal 20 something year old girl on holiday would do - we played Crazy Golf.  It was a tense and exciting game, resulting in a win for Lisa.
