MIDNIGHT!/ Sunday, May 09, 2010
I'm back from my Phuket trip with 7 other pretty ladies! It's my first trip to Phuket, but I found that place too geared towards tourists, especially the beach area. The entire economy in Phuket should be very tourist-dependent. They charge higher prices as compared to Bangkok as well. That said, the company was great! :D
Group photo taken at the budget terminal before we fly off! WQ overslept!!! She only woke up when Eunice called her at 6plus. -.-
I got a window seat so I could see all the clouds flying pass! Pretty pretty clouds. I think WQ's shots are nicer though.

Our mini van transportation to the hotel! The guide, Nina, helped us with photo.

My hotel room and that's my roomie!! The view outside isn't awesome at all. There's nothing to see but another hotel opposite us..
We played pool while waiting for the shuttle bus to fetch us to the beach.
First sea activity of the day after walking for a long long distance and bargaining with the guys about the rate for the banana boat. See the chairs with the blue mats behind? There were plenty of them on the beach, but we'd have to pay if we wanted to use them. We didnt want to pay, so we just basked under the scorching sun. HY WQ and Jac tried parasailing after that too.
Our first meal restaurant. Strangely enough we didn't find any authentic thai shops around so we settled in this slightly arabic restaurant.
This crepe looks so tempting I wanted to try but I was too full from my meal I had to give it a miss. ):
We headed to Junceylon next, the only air-conditioned place around, to look for pineapples after our dinner/late lunch.
We didnt want to wash up so quickly after getting back to the hotel, so we took a dip in their mini swimming pool.
Day 2. We went to visit Phi Phi Island. That's our tour guide.
Group picture on the speedboat!
Freezers. This was taken on one of the islands which we stopped over for 40mins.
Our failed jumpshots. =x
The island we stopped over: MAYA Bay.
Next stop: time to feed the monkeys! They're really smart they know when the next group of tourists have arrived and they would approach that boat. The monkeys are bold, and it was interesting looking at them take the food from you.
Buffet lunch provided on Phi Phi Island. A weird combi dont you think?
Map of Phi Phi Island.
Picture taken on the speedboat!
Snapshot taken from the top of my room!
After the day trip, we went for a 2h traditional thai massage. Comfy comfy.
These 2 bought Malibu at the thai airport, so we finished up the drink on the second night.
She's supposed to be asleep.
Day 3. It's our land day, but the weather was so warm some of us got coconut drink from the roadside stalls.
After getting the singlets, we decided it was best to stay in an air-conditioned place, especially when the weather was so warm and humid! So we ended up chilling at starbucks. :D
Dunkin' Donuts at the thai airport before we bid Phuket goodbye!
I think this is the pinhole effect.
Souvenirs we got for Blizzards.
Past. Present. Future
