Travel Blogs from Patong, Thailand
Lying on the Beach Doesn't Make for Good Stories
On Friday we got up at 6:00 am to go to the beach as during the day it gets so hot you can't be out in it without pouring with sweat. Early morning is the time to go even at 6am it is still bout 24C. So we got there and they were just setting up the ...
Patong Paradise......or just plain party town
... nbsp; Puts my makeup regime to shame! It was full glitz, glamour and a little bit of sleaze! I then dined at Patong Seafood, a big restaurant overlooking the beach, where you choose your seafood from the front bins and they cook it fresh. I ...
A Night to End the Fight Early
When you reach a certain number of weeks away from home, does it cease to be a holiday? Is there a fixed point? Maybe that point is when you exceed the "allowable" number of days as set by HR and decide that the job is expendable.... Maybe its ...
Welcome to Costa del Thailand
We caught a couple of flights down from Hanoi to the largest Thai island - Phuket. We decided to stay in the Patong beach area, as Sophie had stayed there when she visited 6 years ago. Wow has this place changed, it is a lot more developed and ...
Day 39 Thailand Patong - Phi Phi
Today we are going to Phi Phi, on our journey we meet Daniel who is doing the Islands the opposite way round to us and likes to remind us just how old and 'past it' we are as he thinks he is too old to be doing this travelling/partying malarkey at the ...
Ko Phi Phi
Ahh, THIS is the island paradise we were looking for. On Wednesday morning, we took a two-hour ferry ride to Ko Phi Phi, a small island about 50 km from Phuket. We arrived to beautiful, sunny (albeit hot) weather, which was a portend for our trip to ...
Luxury In Patong, Phuket - Goodbye Thailand
... in rooms like this. Michelle who I had explored the outback with was leaving Australia and arriving in Thailand today, so we had arranged to meet in Patong Beach so that she could spend her birthday with company, rather than on her own in strange lands. ...
Well It's really not so bad!
... Penny on the street (what a small world!), and here in a little bit Carrie, Dana, Penny and I are going to eat dinner. Patong is very, very touristy, this is were a lot of europeans come to vacation. It was very interesting view on the beach today, ...
Day 38 Thailand - Patong
... young Thai men, so you see guys don't just come out here for Thai birds!!! Girls beware if your partner tells you he's going to Thailand on "business" as a majority of the men had wedding rings on!!! We needed some time out of the sun and as I had lost ...
Ok, think we got it straighten out
Hey Everyone! Well We think we got it all figured out....plans are constantly changing. But I guess thats the best part of not having any plans at all...lol. So, on Thursday, Penny and I are taking the ferry to Koh Phi Phi and reserve some rooms. ...
Patong, Phuket - No Sun!!!!
... , arrived in to Phuket airport which is so like Carnmore it's not funny! Anyways, had a private transfer to our hotel and Patong is really weird, it is surrounded on all sides by either water and mountains and you have to drive over the mountain to get ...
Karon Beach
... quieter and a bit upmarket from Patong. The best part about it is the hotel which is a billion times better than the one at Patong and a little less expensive. We paid 1300 Baht (about 20 pounds a night ) while in Patong. We stayed at the Coast Star ...
Just one drink you buy me.
... , a tourist in Patong has the town to himself. It was a gorgeous sunny day on one of the largest tourist resorts in Thailand, and maybe 200 sunbathers were on the beach. There were probably as many vendors as vacationers, and the trend was noticeable ...
Last week - Tsunami warning etc
... to the higher ground, we all just sat tight, the previous Tsunami didnt make it to our hotel so we were pretty safe! I will probably return to Thailand in November for my next India visa run, so Im going to save some of the big shopping for ...
Charming... well not really
Ah, Phuket. Phuket. Lots of stories about Phuket; its an interesting place to go -- quite an experince. Every couple of steps down the main road, people are pulling you into their shops to sell you stuff. Ive been offered by 5 different people to get a ...
Phuket, fun in the tuk tuk, Karon beach
Had a little lay inn very tiered after yesterdays travels, sorted out getting to Phi Phi Island we're going to stay 2 nights there so we can get that early morning and evening with not so many day tourists. Headed into town to catch a bus to the beach. ...
Going Out in Style
... fact that every morning when we walk to the beach, the sides of the roads are covered in vomit) which is the epicenter of Patong nightlife. Its a fairly short street, crammed with bars on both sides of the road. There are also various tourist shops and ...
almost done
I would love to believe that this adventure started witha flourish and fanfare. It didn't. I think it is ending about the same way it began...just another day. I sat and watched the waves this morning. Same as I have done just about every morning ...
Island getaway
We arrived early in the morning after a comfortable bus ride. Bus quality and price was very comparable to South America, clean air conditioned, reclining seats, and this was only a 1st class bus, not VIP. Cost was about $20/person for a 13 hour ride. ...
Our last day
Our last day was filled with many things... especially when it is compared to the past couple of days. In the morning we awoke at about nine and went to the Panda house for breakfast. Of the seven mornings that we have been here, only two have been ...
Sa-wat-dee kraup!!! Hello again from Thailand!
Had a change in accommodation so I thought it'd be a good idea to update about my last couple days! I still am in major culture shock... Everywhere I look I see something that is just strange, not OSHA approved, unbelievably risky or just plain weird ...
Postcards from Phuket and Phi Phi
... bombed that taxi and claimed miggslamic jihad of my own! The dishonesty of some SE Asian countries, namely Vietnam and Thailand has seriously left a lasting negative impression on both Burgundy and I. Phuket island though touristy and way ...
the most beautiful building site i've ever seen
Understandably, due to the Tsunami, Koh Phi Phi is one big building site. We arrived to the sounds of hammering, drilling and some very strange noises we couldn't work out. A tout tried to kidnap us at the docks and drag us to his guest house ...
Met some Germans
... it pissed cats and dogs again we decided to go bowl. Isn't it a bit strange that you can go to a Bowlarama in Patong...?! Anyway, it was just great fun hanging around with 'em. Thomas and I decided to get a chance watching some German Bundesliga - ...
First sight of the beach!
... we were in Bangkok we had people asking you to come to a ping pong show but it's was far less blatant than in Patong. The food in Thailand has been really interesting. When we first arrived we were both a bit nervous of what to eat and what to stay away ...
2nd Day of diving
... Nobody's bothered about it though, and it was even explained to me that young women usually go out with much older men in Thailand (few would go out with men in their 60+'s, unless they're after something other than a relationship). Anyway, off for a ...
Still in Hat Karon
Hi Well as you can tell from the title we are still in Hat Karon (Phuket). We meant to stay only 2 nights, however due to poor weather and a bout of food poisioning we stayed a couple more days. We are heading to Phuket Town today, we will ...
1st week gone
... to go to Goa Phuket is very beautiful, hilly, very much like New Zealands backdrop with clear blue sky and whispy clouds. Patong is the full-on centre of Phuket, very guy orientated. We live near Bangla Road which comes alive after 10pm with go go ...
Back to sun an fun!!!!
... , on Chinese new year that means high prices. The next three night and days were spent on the other side of Patong recovering from the previous nights and catch'n up on emails and me blog. It was also a chance to save money and do some ...
It's all gone a bit Pa-tong...
Met Gary today at the bus terminal and the five of us (Kris included) got a Tuk Tuk to the other side of Phuket to Patong, the second biggest tourist hit-spot after Pattaya. It was as we expected when we got there, tourists everywhere. Took us ages to ...
