Holiday!!
Feels like I never went away now! Until I look at my fantastic pictures! I had a great time in Costa Teguise, Lanzarote a couple of weeks ago. I was disappointed with the weather at first, we arrived to rain and cloud which put me in quite a bad mood the first couple of days, I felt a bit lost and didn't know what to do on holiday with no sun??
But the weather cleared up quickly and we enjoyed some fabulous sunshine. I went with Nick, my sister, her husband and close friends. The company was great and we spent most of our time just laughing at eachother!
It was a busy holiday and I didn't get the rest I was planning but I didn't mind as we only had a week out there and wanted to do as much as possible.
The picture above is the day we spent on the beach and just about to get on a banana boat, it was great fun, I was posing as usual and ended up falling in and taking the others with me! I was doing a kind of Side Spin pose and thinking I was very clever until I hit the water very hard!
One of the main highlights for me was watching a real Drag Queen Show, I love Drag Queens and would love to go to Vegas to see the real deal, although I don't think they get any better than the two we saw in Lanzarote at a place called Cactus Jacks. The first night the entertainment was a bit naff but the second night we caught the last part of this Drag Queen Show which was fab, after meeting them and giving them a hug I found out they were back on monday and I managed to get front row seats in the pub! It really was one of the best nights I've ever had, they were hilarious, and they picked on all of our partners.
Poor Nick got dragged on stage and had about 5 lollipops put in his mouth, the last lolly was pulled out from underneath her skirt and was the size of a dinner plate! Everything about them was so fantastic, their outfits were amazing, stage presence, make up, legs, bums! I was in complete awe of them and can't recommend enough going to watch a show like that, they are so cheeky and funny! They should have a website in about a month so I'll post the details, well worth a look!
This was before the show, I just love them!
The next highlight for me and I couldn't believe it was an afternoon on a huge catermeran. For 69 euro's each we spent 4 hours on the boat including a lovely lunch, ride on a jet ski, diving off the boat and snorkling. It was manned by a crew of 5 who were so friendly and fun. There was a bar and on the way back they cranked up the music and one of the male members was gesturing pole dancing on one of the poles that held up the middle section of the boat. Nick pushed me to show them how it was done and I hesitated at first but as soon as they heard I could pole dance they cheered me on. Thinking about it now it was so surreal, there must have been 40 odd people on this boat watching me and cheering, the crew loved it and I showed the man who started it how to do a few moves in front of the others, he was a really good sport and I got him body waving, doing a boomerang backslide and he even attempted the seat!
When we got back to the marina, we were the last lot off the boat and the whole crew bowed down and cheered me off, it was so sweet! I looked back at them when I had walked off and they were tidying up the boat and still attempting the moves I had shown them! I think they were impressed. I will be sending them some pictures as I don't think anyone had done this on their boat before!
Anyhoo back too reality now, I feel like I've gone on a bit but it really was such a good holiday!
I'm back doing my lessons in Liskeard again now, hope my girls enjoyed their lesson with Sam while I was away. I am training very hard and getting quite frustrated, I just want to do it all!
Great things are happening for the Art of Dance at the mo, check out Sams blog for the latest exciting news!
Good luck to Sam next week for the Miss Pole Dance finals, you go girl!
Will catch up again soon, not such a long one next time! I am planning to do a new video of my dancing since the only one on my blog was when I was a student! Watch this space!
Take it easy!
