(pictures to follow soon)
The day is well spent
doing nothing and for someone that doesn't usually have much practice
with that, I have to gloat and say that I am quite good at it. I am a
natural at lounging around.I am even multi-talented, as I can do it
around the pool, at the hotel or in our room, . I love the fact that
I have nothing better to do but lay by the pool, not getting a suntan
(fps 60 cream forbids it)
Cool fact #1: thanks for
our polyphasic sleeping, we are out and about at all hours of the day
and around 9am as I am walking on our hotel floor, I notice that ALL
the doors have the “Do not disturb sign”. I should have taken a
picture, it would have been worth a thousand words!
Getting ready for the
night is glitch free (which anyone that knows me will tell you it's
rare, as I have a special curse that makes getting ready a freakish
time, where gravity no longer has a hold on reality...) and we enjoy
another bottle of mousseux while listening to some appropriately
horny making music.
Cool fact #2: there is no
ice left in the ice machine. I have never seen that happen in my
entire life. Probable cause: an entire hotel out to party ;)
Going to the venue is
easy (this year all venues were very easily accessible from the
hotel) and we hear the thumping of the music as we walk to the venue,
letting us know we are getting towards the right place.
Upon entering, my
attention is immediately grabbed but the actual venue. Maybe that's
because I also organize parties, but I can't help but notice how cool
the place is. A huge and very majestic staircase leads to different
balconies that would be very chi-chi if it wasn't for the fact that
they are packed with fetishists.
The place is definitely
packed. The music is pretty good, although not as much to my
taste as the previous night.
Again, we see many
different familiar faces a lot of friends are here but it's so hectic
that doing anything but waving or exchanging a few words is somewhat
pointless.
The outfits are cool to
look at, but again what kills me is the heat. I guess Floridians are
used to it so they do not pump in as much AC as a Montrealer needs. I
am overheating in my head to tow latex outfit!
I don't know how I
managed, but apparently I missed the shows, bou! So again, we bow out
a little early and go to the pool.
I won't bore you with the
details, as this night is a bit of a repeat of the previous one but
don't think for one second it wasn't memorable in it's own right.
Unlike most of the people
who came for the weekend, we are not leaving Monday as for us there
is one more event: a laid back get together at Glenn and Donna's
house. It's a tradition they have: as they do not have time to see
people during the weekend as they're organizing the whole thing, they
invite a few people at their house to allow for some socialization
before they finally get some rest.
Leaving the hotel, there
is a noticeably different atmosphere, as most pervs now have left the
site and it has now been claimed back by normality. I don't know if
it's just me or I'm suffering from post traumatic sex disorder but
normal people are weird.
We make our way to Glenn
and Donna's house to find the who's who of the fetish scene and again
upon arrival I can tell things are different from last year, as we
know a lot more people and feel right at home.
It's great to get to
talk to these people in a more laid back setting, as it allows us to
get to know them a little better.
The only thing missing is
our good friend Luk, who's wasn't been able to make it this year and
whom I've missed all weekend.
Glenn and Donna are,
again, impeccable hosts and we need to learn their trick, as although
they're probably completely wiped by now, they still manage to be
gracious, pleasant and they actually look like a million bucks. Seb
and I were completely useless the day after our first festival and
had we not the obligation to open the store on the next Tuesday, we
would have gladly taken the week off.
I guess having fourteen
years of experience comes in handy ;)
So after having good
food, good alcohol and especially good company, it is once again time
to head back to our hotel room, but this time for the last night, as
tomorrow we are headed out to Key West, the next step of our non
fetish road trip.
