HOLY SH*T I would love to have been there. I can remember hearing these tunes at a "rave" and everyone just got standing there silent right before they would go nuts.

I am not a fan of the trance tunes these days, but man what I would do to go to a party that played these old gems.

This thread is making me want to stop in ibiza on my trip over there next year, but I think i'll be there too early...1st 2 weeks of June

Indeed! He closes @ Amnesia for a reason!

You can stay where I stayed this summer:

Hotel Costa Sur, Ctra. de port des torrent, Bahia de San Antonio
[email protected]

we got a good deal, 20 euro a night and the hotel was great, two pools, basically a nice resort kind of a place. since you are not really gonna be in a hotel all that often, all you really need is a bed with cleaning service that is close to the town (to buy groceries ect.) and this place is at San Antonio bay (about 5 mins by boat).

I think Andrea has already answered most of the questions you have but feel free to ask me anything and I would help out to my best knowledge!

Oh and see ya there next summer

out of my top 5, the carl cox night was 3 of them

1. space opening
2. pvd & ferry at cream
3. carl cox opening
4. carl cox when ry, fuad and fez first came
5. last time before i left (august 22)

these are in no particular order

btw, renting a car is expensive. expect to pay 90$ euros for the day, plus gas and insurance. unless you are planning on goin to several out of the way place, its not worth it

view from my rooftop pool (san antonio). we spent pretty much everyday here, straight from a party


old ibiza (eivissa)

Hahha....screw that. Cale wouldn't even being going on this trip if it weren't for me. He's merely tagging along. This was my present to myself once I finished my undergrad.


Also...you all say that August is the most expensive month. I would LIKE to go at another time, but it doesn't look like we have much of a choice. We're going to Holland for 2 months first, and renting an apartment. Generally they start the first of the month...We would be going June 1st. I finish school at the END of April and there's no way I could be prepared to be there May 1st. So we're renting in Holland June and July and then to Ibiza. I want to do Holland first b/c I want to go to Sensation, Dance Valley....and also b/c I've always wanted to go to Holland first...if I go to Ibiza first, I won't even want to go to Holland. Sensation White is the party I've always wanted to go to first over seas.

Anyway...pretty much this "August is the most expensive" stuff is starting to freak me out. I'm afraid I won't be able to afford it.

Spitty I know you want us to stay longer...I would love to...but I'm just afraid money wise since we WILL be going in August.

Also, we'd be flying from Toronto (or Detroit) to Holland, Holland to Ibiza, and then Ibiza back home...can any one take a stab at how much they think that would cost? A lot of people are saying over a thousand both ways for each...so would it end up costing me almost $3000 total in flights?


EDIT:

People are saying to book flights and shit early...how early is early? Like we haven't even booked our flights to Holland yet! We were going to do that in January. I don't think we should book our flights to Ibiza before we book them to Holland b/c they're usually non-refundable aren't they?


Also what do you guys do for money? Carry cash on you all the time? Visa? Travellers checks? OMG I don't know!! I've never been off the continent.

Book early:

Toronto - AMS should be about 800-1100 (round trip). Once again price varies depending on when you buy them.
AMS-London: Not too sure, but should not be over $200
London-Ibiza: as cheap as 200 bucks, but people have got it for much cheaper.
These are all round trip prices (and are just rough estimates).

I would suggest you pick some dates and price them online.

I will see your dutch ass in holland Cale along with ur funny lookin gf hahahahahaha and in ibiza and if anyone happens to be in Mykonos Ali and i are also hittin that up after Ibiza

Ok, with low cost airlines, like Easyjet or Ryanair or BMI Baby, there are a number of allotted seats that are cheap if you book early - the price goes up nearer the time as businesses are willing to pay... Dead easy to find online.

KLM to Amsterdam, for sure! Cheap and good planes.

Money? Charge your credit card up wich cash (so you are in credit with them) and withdraw from cash machines, by far the best rate and you can take as much out as you need - remember, UK is not on the Euro.

again, you can do it much cheaper. some nights i'd do the same thing with as other people, but they'd spend 10 times what i was. just do it smart and it will be easily done. plus if u stretch it out, you won't party every night...and the sunset/beach don't cost u money (neither do the preparties, bora bora etc.) booze is cheap (when bought before) so is other shit

because you are going so early in the season, your Toronto to Adam flights could be decently cheap. If i were you, I'd fly from TO to London (get return flights)..then get London to Adam..adam to ibiza..ibiza to london. BOOK EARLY AS POSSIBLE (january will be fine) and book TO to London first, as it will be the main costing one. Try zoom for TO to london, easy jet for inner-europe, vueling is a great company for europe (not uk)..i flew from adam to ibiza for under 60 euros

never had a problem with bank cards in spain. not sure for other places. maybe set up on your account that if need be, u can transfer your money into cales account or vice versa, incase one of u loses your cards. give your mom access to your account so she can wire you money if shit goes really bad (both of u lose your cards). don't stress about that... and don't both with travellers checks. not a lot of places use them.

sick trip. wikked wikked
