My Phuket Trip!

Finally ... I managed to find some time to upload these pictures. This Phuket trip was absolutely terrific!The island has so much to do that it's impossible to fit everything in one visit. Despite all the hiccups along the way, we did have a few jolly good days and i fully intend to visit this little island again.

We spent our 1st day at Patong Beach area for Thai massage and shopping ... it was then followed by a dinner at the famous seafood restaurant, Savoer. The food was totally YUMMY!



DAY 2, we hired a cabbist to take us around the island. He brought us to Phuket town, cashew nut factory, souvenir store and the Patong Market. We managed to squeeze in a 2 hours oil body massage right before our buffet dinner & cultural show at Phuket FantaSea. Shiok!



DAY 3, we have decided to join the Phuket Siam Seacanoe whole day cruise tour. Our first stop was Lawa Island where we had an absolutely fun time swimming and canoeing. The water was soo clear and you could see some small little little fishes swimming around you ... BUT, we forget to bring water resistant sun block so we were kinda "cooked" after the 1 hour swimming session.

I managed to get a very good "coach" (ya, the young man in blue) and picked up my canoeing skill very quickly.


This is the famous James Bond Island.

Lunch was provided and the food was simply DELICIOUS!!!

'
They called these sea caves "Hong Island". The caves are the result of millennia-long erosion, making the roofs of sea caves collapse in and thereby creating an almost perfect micro-environment where wildlife and flora can exist in peace. The staffs brought us into these sea caves by canoeing.
