Learning lessons the hard way
This is a top pick! ... online. And yet, these companies are still running and people just don’t know about these scams before they get to Thailand. I’m thinking I am going to make it a personal mission to get the word out as much as possible. I also ...
Bars, Beaches, Buddhas & Ladyboys - 6 May - 21 May
This is a top pick! ... on the southern part, the north part is undeveloped…but for how long I wonder. I must admit before coming to Thailand I never realised Phuket was an island I just assumed it was a beach resort on the mainland. It is however the largest Thai island ...
It's over already?
This is a top pick! I can't believe that it is over. This has been a vacation full of history, culture, relaxation and fun. We have met such wonderful people, learned a little of the language and become familiar with Buddhism. This is what travel is all about. We had the ...
Patong Ping Pong
This is a top pick! Ahhh Phuket....Thailand’s version of Faliraki!! It's THE most built up, touristy, and crazy place we have been so far!!! Patong is definitely where it all happens, oh and it's one of the places featured most in Bravo's Big Trouble in Thailand! The ...
PHUK ET
This is a top pick! ... the same price as the 6 hour bus ride we'll be taking from Bangkok down the other side of the country, stupid expensive Phuket grumble grumble.... The plane took just over an hour to get into Bangkok and seeing as we are now pros at Bangkok we mangaed ...
Phuket - and some 5 star living
This is a top pick! ... On our boat were a couple of Australian characters called Tamara and Billy. We arranged to meet with them for our last night in Phuket. They were staying in Patong an hour away from us....so lippy and dancing flip flops chosen we departed. We started off ...
A lot changes in 10 years....
This is a top pick! ... : 30 degrees Weather : Hazy sunshine Our flight left on time at 5pm from Udon Thani. Two hours later we landed in Phuket International Airport. Our bags were some of the first to arrive on the conveyor belt. As the exit doors opened the touts ...
Like to share a time share?
This is a top pick! ... for business to pick up. I can only imagine what Patong beach is like when everything is in full swing. A lot of tourist go to Phuket for seedier reasons, strippers, special massages, but we came just for the beach and now we weren't able to enjoy it ...
Phuket and Phi Phi - After the tsunami...
This is a top pick! ... so. It is just a great place to be! We spent the last couple of weeks of our Thailand leg in the south of Thailand on the Islands Phuket and Phi Phi. Both were hit pretty hard by the Tsunami but we were surprised to see how quickly things are rebounding. ...
Is it possible to spontaniously combust?
This is a top pick! ... The hotel is still nearly deserted. There are a few families and the wonderful staff of the hotel. So after a day on the beach in Thailand, even with sun screen on, Cory and I burned to a crisp. Right now we can't even stand the feel of the sheets ...
A little bit of luxury goes a long way.
This is a top pick! ... of the luxury too, but that was actually and truthfully besides the point. I must admit I did have mixed emotions going to Phuket. I mean how morally correct is it of us to go and enjoy pampering and luxury when so many people lost their lives, their ...
we are off to the sea side
This is a top pick! ... the view point, so it's pretty safe and the only way to get around. Kamala is where you can take in a great show at Phuket Fantasea. The setting is actually grander than the performance but it was a nice night out and we got to cuddle a baby tiger which ...
Out of the Kok and into the Phu
This is a top pick! ... since they were toddlers. He's a surfer and has been all over the world beaching it up so when he said he'd bought a bar in Thailand I could only think there would be a beach nearby. Good thing for me. I like a swim at the beach as much as the next ...
Phuket Madness
This is a top pick! ... to the madness as possible. Tonight is the Full Moon and, while I have nothing to compare it to, it appears that Phuket is especially crazy! We have a nice dinner and do something of a bar crawl. The troublesome threesome comes ...
"Please change ferry in the middle of the sea"
This is a top pick! ... around, after checking into our hotel (which used to be an old hospital), and ended up having KFC as our last Thai meal. It was off to bed ready to rise for the plane to Kuala Lumpur in the morning. Goodbye Thailand.......We'll definitely be ...
Do sharks eat at night?
This is a top pick! ... forever warm our hearts. My life has been enriched by the people of Thailand and especially those that have led us through Thailand. Before we left for Phuket we took a last look at the Chiang Mai Plaza and Cory and I left our flower necklaces with the ...
How the hell did I end up here?!
This is a top pick! ... of bats and stone made as sparkly as crystal by the calcium deposits coating the surfaces. That whole first real day in Phuket was just so special; I will always be grateful for that experience. The rest of the first few days here were spent relaxing ...
Patong, still in Phuket
This is a top pick! ... if anyone would like to come out and see us, just email and let us know. World Cup fever has gripped the whole of Phuket (I have my England shirt; 8 Lampard), the England game was lame, but the Trinidad & Tobago game against Sweden was the best since ...
Thailand - Phuket
This is a top pick! ... few days into our stay, with still no sign of Simon the manager we had to try to book a few things without his assistance. Thailand is notorious for not having many English-speaking locals, even in the tourist industry, so we were preparing to have a hard ...
Ko Phi Phi - Day 55
This is a top pick! I decided to have a beach day. Went to Ao Loh Dalum beach this morning which is only a short walk from where I'm staying in Ao Ton Sai village. The little cove is incased with reasonably high cliffs and a few sea stacks in the distance on the east side. ...
Trip to South with Kanchana and Mark
This is a top pick! ... Krabi, drove to Trang, stayed in Krabi and then Phuket and drove up to and stayed in Ranong, before returning home. Notes: Phuket - we stayed at Patong, which wasn't really that relaxing. It is pretty interesting (the nightlife and all the bars and ...
Sin City in Thailand
This is a top pick! ... arm with them seem to be completely content. If Vegas is the Sin City of the US, then Pa Tong is the Sin City of Thailand. Huge crowds of tourists flood the streets all through-out the day, loud music and flashing lights pollute the space. Not one step ...
Beach Day
This is a top pick! Today was my first time in the ocean. Now, I've in the Gulf of Mexico at several points up and down the coast from Texas to Florida, and I've swum in the Mediterranean Sea, but neither of them count. They're no the ocean. Today, I went to Nai Harn beach ...
Earthquake
This is a top pick! ... toll. The earthquake experience brought home what was already on the forefront of my mind, and I was glad to soon be trading the beach for the mountains. We fortunately managed to get a bit of sleep before heading to Northern Thailand in the ...
Settling in
This is a top pick! ... 24 for the course. The course doesn't start until the 29th, however, meaning I have four days to do whatever I want around Phuket. I'm definitely ready to finally hit the beach. I've been contemplating and scheming on some plans for after the course, but ...
The Names Bond...Leornardo Bond
This is a top pick! Sunday 22nd August 2004 Unfortunately, the air conditioning was just too good - despite having a blanket, it was freezing! Arrive in Phuket town, where all the Taxi drivers offer to take me to Patong Beach for 200 bhat, wont find it cheaper etc etc ...
Time to relax
This is a top pick! ... here as in India. We are able to sleep in a little bit which is nice. Rick hasn't left the hotel room yet to check out Thailand but i have done a little bit of exploring. The weather is hot and muggy with a quick rain shower a couple of times a day ...
Singapore, Phuket & Ko Phi Phi - Day 54
This is a top pick! ... the places I've been so far. It was like arriving in an alien world, but a nice, clean and friendly alien world. Arrived in Phuket this morning and jumped on a bus to Phuket town where I got a taxi to the docks and bought a boat ticket to Ko Phi ...
The Hospital Diaries
This is a top pick! It all started last Friday when I suddenly found myself spending the entire afternoon curled up on my side while my arms and legs shook me senseless with their uncontrollable violent spasms. I've been in hospital all week. I've had x-rays, three MRI ...
