Phuket @ May 2007


5 hari 4 malam ke Patong, Phuket....view dari atas kapal terbang mmg cun gilerrr...rasa x sabar nk landing...trip ni gi ngan Idah and her brother & family....5 of us...

Hari nak pegi ni byk betul dugaan...kereta x blh start...missed the bus.....almost tertinggal flight.............huh!

We were staying at Holiday Inn-Phuket Busakorn Wing (a very2 nice hotel!) and welcomed with flowers and complimentary local fruits (rambutan, manggis etc). NICE!!!

Swimming pool mmg very tempting (pic: view from our room..cantik kan!)....x lepas peluang swimming...acara wajib..hehehe..Patong Beach mmg tempat tourist...everywhere was full with mat salleh...but the beach itself was not as beautiful as i expected (maybe after tsunami kot pantai dia x berapa cantik-hilang mood nk mandi pantai...plus...nobody mandi manda pun kat pantai tuh...oh ya.....they were after the sun! tanning session!)

One thing good about Patong, u can just walk around the small town...a lot of restaurants (arabs, thais, seafoods, indians) and a lot of clubs, pubs, open bars...name it!

A lot of places and shops for shopping too...Patong Top Shopping Paradise...where all the Prada, Gucci, Guess, Jimmy Choo, Chanel etc waiting to be grabbed....shoes, t shirts, parios...their printed t shirts are really nice...i bought myself "My Chemical Romance" t shirt and the most sought out tshirt-"NO I DON'T WANT A F*?K'N TUK TUK SUIT OR MASSAGE THANK YOU VERY MUCH (must buy!SERIOUS!)

I kept on wondering why this t shirt is very popular among the tourists (officemates i pun kirim)....i learnt that these 3 things were very popular there...massage services were everywhere...and then, there were tuk tuk-a town taxi (pic) and boleh tempah suit siap dalam masa 1 hari! believe it or not! and the price is quite reasonable...basically, u can find a lot of things there...some things are cheaper but of course u have to bargain...otherwise, for a fake Guess purse, they would sell about RM100...(yeah...might as well get the original!)..keyword is..BARGAIN!

We tried to find pirate cds, vcds, dvds.....tapi satu pun xde jual openly....bila tanye kat kedai2....baru lah tau diorg nih jual pirate cds underground...siap ade bilik rahsia belakang kedai or kat ceruk2 bangunan....seram gak tapi kitorg determine nak cari dvd...quite cheap and kualiti gambar blh tahan....surprisingly.....almost all sellers there were not locals.....ramai foreigners-pakistan ramai....termasukla yg jual dvd haram ni (pic)...hehehe...

waktu ptg blh nk kata everyday hujan.....a lil bit disappointed...but overall, i had fun...tapi kecewa x dapat pegi bond island and bungee jumping....maybe i ll go there again someday!
