Hi there, I'm looking for anyone going on this date. I'm travelling solo and would love to know who else has booked this date.

Hi Serene Smiler

I'm thinking of joining the spanish spree tour sep 8-20th. I read from one of your posts that you are from the T-dot! So am I!! Whereabouts?

I must add that I haven't joined the tour as of yet because like you I'm travelling solo and so my nerves are getting the best of me. With this said, I'm getting closer and closer to giving my travel agent the go ahead to book!

Are you thinking of extending your trip as well?
Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi Alessia.

I'm in Etobicoke. I was nervous before booking too to go by myself but after thinking about it - what's the big deal - we'll be on a tour with a bunch of other people (and a lot of other solo people) so no big deal..

Now that I'm booked and I actually received my travel documents - I can't wait. I AM SO EXCITED!!!

Definitely think of booking. It will be an awesome time.

Where abouts in TO are you?

Hi Serene:
I am also on this tour. I had the same reservations you felt about going alone, but like you said, we'll be with a tour group. You've received your travel documents? I booked a month+ ago and I am still waiting on mine...

I also noticed someone created a group for our date on Facebook (www.facebook.com):
"Spanish Spree - Sept 9-20th - 2007"

Hi Lindsey. You should be getting them shortly as they normally go out so many weeks before departure. I'm glad there's another female on board.

I went on Facebook - its only the 3 of us.

Hi Serene:
Ok, thanks! I was getting nervous! Lol, I know. There was only "Gary P" when I joined. He's also in the September 1st Facebook group too... so I am not sure which tour he's actually on. I am hoping by posting the group here people will join in. I am so excited!

Wait till you receive all your travel info with all the hotel info, etc... then you'll be jumping for joy. LOL!

Hey,
Fellow Travelers! Wanted to introduce myself. I'll be going solo (by design). I do know Spanish and am going to Spain to learn about my heritage. I've started to take a look at the places to be at in Ibiza. My sister just got back, and she explained that the best time to be there is during the (Summer) Closing Parties, and guess just when WE WILL BE THERE? Please see http://www.ibiza-spotlight.com/night/club_dates_september_i.htm for the various parties while we're there. She explained that the top places are (in order) Space, Pacha, Privilege, and Amnesia. It looks like Wed the 19th, we could go out with a Bang, as the Space Closing party starts at 8AM and the Privilege one starts at 11:59pm, thought that may mean some will have to go straight to the airport from there. I'm staying an extra day and then going to the Greek Island Hopping Tour.

In any case, it is a pleasure to meet you all, and can't wait as there are basically just 2 weeks left! Feel free to write @ http://www.myspace.com/frisc

See you all in a couple of weeks!

Lou

Hey Lou:
I also checked out the party schedule. I'm excited to see someone else has been looking into the clubs too. I am *hoping* I can get a few people from the tour to go to the Armada Closing Party at Amnesia on Tuesday night (to see Armin van Buuren).

Drug busts closed Amnesia, Bora Bora and DC10, for a month or so, but I think everything has returned to normal now.

2 weeks!! Yay!

im staying an extra couple nights and im definitely going to the Cream closing party at Amnesia as I wanted to see PVD and Ferry Corsten (who amazed me in New Orleans last year). But im definitely down for whatever. We gotta do a FOAM party for sure tho..

Nice to have you aboard Lou

Hey everyone!

I just booked this tour earlier on today, and wanted to start by saying a quick hello to all you fellow solo-going travelmates, and see how many of you are still following this message thread ...


P.S. Has anyone else done any other Contikis before?

P.P.S. Gary_from_Van: "The Toronto crew" has just outnumbered the rest of you by one more person Cool.
