and yes I know that it will take me a while to blog about the entire trip so why not just a summary will do haha!
Just imagine those words ‘Bangkok‘ as ‘Phuket’!
It sometimes disgusts me to no end that I am blogging lesser and lesser these days. It’s so disgusting that I could even take a picture of an elephant poo and edit it for the longest wee hours so that it’ll look awesomely pooshed and weeeed and that does not even make sense! And fyi I certainly did not do that if you were wondering but I do have a picture of an elephant poo haha!
A green one to be exact lol!
So anyways, a 3 day 2 night stay in Phuket all summarized in one post.
Took a flight to Phuket via Air Asia having to get up at 3.30am just to be on time for the 6.50am flight that nearly took a life out of me gahhh. Arrived in Phuket at 8.30am KL time in which it got kind of confusing for us because KL is actually 1 hour ahead of Phuket so in other words, you could say that the flight was in total of only half an hour hahahaha! Of course I kid, but yeah confusion set in just nicely, but got used to it after a while and headed straight to one of the most awesome hotel that I have ever stayed in.
Indigo Pearl Hotel is its name, and posh is its game. Having a freaking huge area which includes a private beach, one could take about an hour or two just to explore the entire place and all in all, there were 3 public pools and some of the rooms have their own private mini pool but unluckily, ours do not. The room was huge, a combination of 2 actually since it was a suite and yeah, quite an open bathroom where it only has curtains to cover and best of all, the shower was a see through and to solve our problems of having to bath, yes the curtains was our savior!
Imagine having to announce each time you wanna go into the bathroom, especially if you were to do your business haha!
This is not even half of our room, that was how big our room was lol!
But it was pretty fun and the room was extremely spacious. Not only that, they even specially cater weddings whereby they have just the spot for people to get married at and by just having a look around the place, I knew that someday I would love to photograph a wedding here, especially pre-wedding shoots! The geek in me compells me to and I can’t help it lol! We rested the rest of the day, took a swim in the awesome Infinity Pool, and came night time, we explored Patong Beach which was roughly around 40 minutes by cab from the hotel.
Yup, they have it all here. Food, clubs, bars, Thai massage, white people, strippers, lady boys (that’s what they call em), McD pork burgers and Starbucks (which we refer to as civilization lol). We were there that night and the next for the food, experience and best of all, the Thai massages which I regretted going for only one night and it was the last night of our trip! I’m missing it already argh and it was so cheap as well compared to KL.
On the second day, we went for a Safari Trip which we got to sit on an elephant, explored the jungles of Phuket, ate some local Thai food, watched some lady rubber tapped, witnessed another lady crack open a coconut with a spearhead and made some coconut oil, watched some people ride a water buffalo (not Nigel) cart, and entertained by a deranged monkey set on getting at you and yanking your head off!
I was kidding about the last part but the monkey was entertaining at the very least lol!
Then it was beach time in the evening where we witnessed an amazing sunset, took some awesome portraits of ourselfs with some very cliched ones but still nice hehe! And the above, well its just a preview lah, will show the rest of it soon I guess haha! The next day was the worst of all 3 days that we were there because it was time to go back and yes, I dreaded going back home, back to kl, back to work…
I wished that I was still there sigh but budget does not permit sigh…
