Several days after
JONATHAN et al.
left Dubai to head back to the Deep Freeze,
John and I flew to
PHUKET!
(That's Poo-ket, thank you very much!)
We flew all night and woke up to a beautiful sunrise!
John and I LOVE everything about Thailand!
We spent our first two nights of this trip
(PHASE ONE:RELAXATION)
in a peaceful location,
MAI KHAO BEACH.
We had a private pool right outside our room,
and a big beautiful pool overlooking
a gorgeous private beach!
Ahhhhh, now this was the ultimate
RELAXATION SPOT!
RELAXATION SPOT!
The sunsets over the Andaman Sea were breathtaking,
and the dinners served beach side were awesome!
Ahhhh, Thailand!
Land of exotic flowers,
sad reminders,
and wonderful wildlife!
We ventured outside the resort where there were
a couple of restaurants and shops,
grabbed a beer at the
NooNit Kitchen,
and used toilet paper as napkins!
(And we thought the tissue boxes in Dubai were funny.)
Our last evening, a taxi driver recommended
this place for dinner and a sunset.
We missed the sunset
but it was fun to watch the kids play around at low tide.
This is Thailand!
Not only are Buddhist shrines everywhere you look,
but so are the chameleons!
On our last morning,
we bid farewell to our peaceful retreat,
and jumped into a taxi
to head to
(PHASE TWO:ACTION)
of our
Thailand Trip!
Thailand Trip!
