Round the world in 90 days!
The Land of Smiles: Phuket
After much deliberation Julius and I decided to stay in Phuket instead of dragging our arses from one island to another. We wanted to relax, so packing and unpacking again and again didn't excite us.
Despite all the bad press Phuket gets, it suited us fine. We stayed on the very busy Patong beach but it had everything we needed: shopping, beach and great food. We mostly had early nights and full days of swimming and eating.
Note: this is the second time I've written this entry (the first deleted itself) so it is brief. I'll let the pictures do the talking . . .
Approaching Karon Beach. This is (apparently) the more 'posh' beach. I think this means no street stalls.
We got everything we wanted out of Thailand: shopping, great food, swimming and some very serious relaxing. We loved the Thai people and of course, the AMAZING food!
