one for the road

sorry its been a few days, but it was not convenient to use the internet in Hvar and I didnt have a whole lot to write about except laying around on various rocky beaches. what was interesting starts on Wednesday night... i made it to a club called Carpe Diem where these Canadian guys were doing flaming sambuca shots. One of them asked for a lighter, and i had a lighter that i had just recently adjusted (to hold up at the concert we went to before the club). so this lighter is spitting out a flame roughly 6 inches high, and this guy lights the shot on fire in his mouth, simultaneously catching both eyebrows on fire with the giant lighter. i dont know if that description makes any sense, but it was one of the funniest things i have ever seen. so Marie left for Italy a couple days ago, and i ended up partying for the past two days with these ridiculous canadians. Yesterday we rented a boat and spent all day cruising around to different beaches and coves on all the uninhabited islands around Hvar. it was a beautiful blue sky day and the water couldnt have been prettier. of course i was the only one who knew how to drive a boat, so i spent all day as captain (sucked) while every one else partied. i finally crashed last night about 8 oclock for the first time in 48 hours and woke up early this morning to catch the catamaran back to Split, which is where i am now. i am heading to Zagreb in about an hour for the night and then tomorrow i am going to Budapest for 3 or 4 days. i wish i could post some pictures but the internet cafe doesnt have a memory card reader. this week has been awesome and was definately a nice break from traveling and walking all day, but i am really excited to see Budapest. Also i finally updated my travel map, so if you click the link above there is a map of everywhere i have been so far. Hope everyone had a good week, ill update tomorrow from Pest.

oh yea, somebody told me this morning that michael jackson died? someone please email me what happened, i am out of time on this comp.
