anyway, here goes my photojournal of my trip!
Took a flight on Airasia to Phuket to visit my sis. had a bit of turbulence but i liked that. haha.. like a roller coaster ride. I arrived earlier than expected so i had to wait for her to pick me up. Then we checked into our room at Diamond Cottage Resort & Spa, slacked for a while, ate some complimentary fruits, and headed out to the beach to explore.
No swimming? u sure?
Sis introduced this roti-prata called pancake. i ordered tomato cheese flavour and she ordered plain flavour which comes with condensed milk.. mmmmm yummy!~ so mine's salty and hers sweet. wonderful!
We were at Kata Beach eating our pancakes and watching tourists parasail. Up, up and away!
Walked back and then to Karon beach where there were many hermit crabs. Much bigger than the ones in Bintan!
We put down the hermit crab and this dog walked over, sniffed at the crab and started rubbing its back against the sand!! So cute!
I want to break free~ I want to break free...!!
The waters leave a beautiful trace as they recede
This is called an astuary
Sat down at a cafe and i ordered a berry tea to quench my thirst
arghhh i was concentrating on taking the sunset photo i didn't notice the waves coming in and they soaked my shoes through and through! This shot was taken the moment i realised it (can u sense the shock?).
dropped by my sis' workplace, Moevenpick Hotel (correct?)
dinner near our hotel, Baan Thai. Not fantastic and there were mosquitoes.. :( and a frog!
quite a spread. regret ordering the green curry chicken which comes in a coconut (last pic), but the coconut helps to simmer the spicyness!
Breakfast at Manow, the restaurant at our hotel. Food's so-so, not much variety, i'm just glad to have cereal and sweet watermelons.
This is the view from our room. See some workers up there?
Took a sawng teow to Phuket Town. That's like a Chinatown, many shophouses. the kind i like =)
hmm.. so turn right must pay?
Lunch at MK, very popular in Thailand. Roasted pork and duck. We ordered dim sum too, oh! forgot to take photos! haa..
Can you tell what kinda signboard that is? Read carefully! So cool right!
Haha houseflies love green tops.
On a tuk-tuk.. we've taken all kinds of local transport within that few days man!
Central Festival Mall. Watched Hancock here.
Big C. I love hypermarts!
Index furniture mall. we went there for...
Sashimi buffet! It's a Jap buffet la, but our highlight is sashimi! umm.. took a little too much. it shld be taken rarely in order to be more highly appreciated.
Went umm clubbing at Timber Hut, finally got to visit this place my sis raves abt. Ordered a Corona. i shld have tried Kloster instead, it's more within my budget and since i've never tried it before. (I'm more of a "been there, done that" kinda person)
i've been *blush* ahem, checking the bassist out. but too bad i've got poor eyesight. He seems cute from far la. Just keep it as that.
Finally took our welcome drink, on the 3rd day!! haha..
Had lunch by the beach at Patong
Sis offering her ma-prow
i ordered a chaa-yen, a must-try in Thailand! it's usually a bit too sweet though.
Phad si-yoo seafood (soya sauce kuay tiao with prawns, squid, crabmeat!)
Sup trying to scoop a long slice of coconut flesh
Hmm sis noticed this cute, patronising tourist with six-pecs.
Jungceylon Shopping mall!! Didn't buy anything, but got a free gift for tourists. :D It's a nice camera pouch.
View from Karon View Point
See the moon up there?
me with sis' car
wow..that's like a meterology station
View at Promthep Cape
Trying to catch the sun
Wah! So many pple watching sunset together! no fun! haa..
The Golden, Yellow sisters
whee~ sunset le. but the final episode was quite sad.
Boats
Roadside dining! Cool concept!
See, the stall's opposite the road! So everytime a dish is ready they have to cross the road to bring it over!
*burp* woah the tom yum goong is really spicy man, i couldn't take it!
Who wouldn't be fascinated by such a view! =D
These cats wanted to watch the view together too.. aww so sweet...
Went to my sis' apartment after that to take a look while Sup took a "quick nap". Watched Romeo & Juliet, and some mountain climbing movie in the meanwhile. That's how quick. haha.. Left about 12 am, return to hotel to pack my stuff. Slept for 5 hrs before going for breakfast and then off to the airport. Slept so soundly on the plane i was amazed it landed so fast. haha..
Home Sweet Home!
