I am lent against a wall writing this and its just past midnight here, the boat is moored just 100 metres behind me but that seems to be too far for the WIFI to the internet cafe to work, 5 metres away from the cafe seems to be the limit but I am thankful of the free code they gave me earlier today which allows me to post this so not complaining!
I seem to be surrounded by drunk Russians so I wont spend much time writing words I will just post the pics from the last 24 hours with just an overview of what we have been up to.
Last night we had a Hawaiian themed night out in the town of Hvar which was probably our biggest night since the first night here so we all must be feeling a little better at least.
This morning we had a fairy lazy start and motored for a couple of hours until we stopped for dinner time and swim in a stunning bay with not another boat on sight for most of it.
After dinner a bit of wind meant we were able to get the sails up for the first time which was great but even better was our introduction to being dragged behind the boat whilst holding a rope as it sailed along at about 5 knots, not a fantastic speed but fast enough when your holding on.
Tonight we are moored at Bol on the island or Brac and the intention tomorrow is to go winsurfing and hopefully Jet Skiing, which is very different to skiing which is what we did yesterday completely by mistake, never trust a consultant is all we have to say about that one apart from it was good fun anyway.
On with the pics anyway, Ive found a chair to ease the pain on my poor sun burnt back now but desperately need some sleep!
Edit: I have had my picture taken 3 times now whilst I have been sat hereĀ writing this post and uploading these pictures so I think I must look a bit strange so its time for bed now for me, hope you enjoy the pics, tons more and videos to follow.

Best shower in the world every morning on the back of the boat

the Jet Ski as Organised my Andy G, James had done it before and was a star

James was straight up on his first pull, the rest of us did less well!

Jon before we dragged him along head first in the sea

We missed Dave last night so we created another version of him

This is Nearer the hostsess looking after us on the boat, I doubt this spellings right!

This is Paco our enigmatic captain who we have christened The Stig because he saw as much and is just as calm
