A 1 1/2 hr plane ride and we arrived on the island of Phuket. On a
side note Thai airways are one of the best airlines I've flown on!!
But I digress..
As we drove through the busy island I got a gut feeling the busy
streets and bars around us were not about to get any better - even
more so as they became English and Irish bars of late 80's holidays
long past.. but there's always a bright side, and that came in the
form of our hotel, a proper little oasis with a lovely pool in the
middle of what could be any bar resort anywhere in the world.
So for the next two days we pretty much stayed around the pool, we did
spend a morning on Patong beach and go to see the lady boys on Bangla
road in the evening (the 7-11 is the local pick up joint).
I may as well mention at this point we have eaten every Thai dish on
the menu, in the most basic street stalls and it's all been really
nice, really cheap and not a belly ache in sight (for now).
Sawatdee krab (hello/goodbye) (girls end with kah)
Kaup khun krab (kah) (thank you)
A quick Thai lesson from the lady we book our island trips with, but
more about that tomorrow.
Sawatdee krab!
