Spring Break Lake Havasu 2007

Ah Spring Break, this is the time where College or University students go away to some destination for a week and live it up large, we were no different ;) We were staying at the London Bridge resort, it's called the London Bridge resort as it does look out over a London Bridge. Yes an actual bridge from London, England. "What?!?", I hear, "Has someone managed to control the fabric of the universe and opened up a warp hole to London, England?" you might say... Well, some guy bought a bridge they were going to demolish in London and shipped it all the way, brick by brick, to Lake Havasu in Arizona!


So back to living it up large, my cold that was getting me down, had luckily all but disappeared on the Saturday, so I was all good to go! Our first stop was to buy supplies and fill the chilly bin. You have to realise this was a large chilly bin, a very large chilly bin, but being young professionals it wasn't hard to manage.

Then it was off to get our pontoon boat which we had hired for the day. This was a pretty sweet water craft. It had a built in stereo, ample comfortable seating, and shade if you didn't want to be in the son. It had a bit of speed and was pretty much perfect for the lake. However we then went down like the channel that they built for the bridge, I have never ever seen so many extravagant boats in my life! So no, ours wasn't the best, as there must be some wealthy people here.. Thus there were some very attractive females out and about ;) Next it was off around the lake to find the party..

Lake Havasu is something like 15 miles in length and has several coves and beaches at which you can park-up and do what you like. Copper Canyon was the place for the spring breakers to congregate - haha. Everybody rafts together, has some relaxing beverages, listens to some sounds and pretty much parties. I have never seen anything like it :D

In the evening after returning the boat, we went to the Kokomo outdoor bar at our hotel. It apparently is the biggest outdoor bar out of California, Nevada and Arizona. It was pretty cool, I met some interesting people, took photos, got back to my room fine, and woke up without any problems :] Even though it was the night of my first real bender here...
