Phuket September 2010, Day 2:
Woohooo! Finally got around to blog about Phuket Day #02!
I know many of you keep asking me to do the post asap cos you might
be planning your own trips to phuket and you want some sort of guide..
i just started my first week of work and i've been really busy and mostly tired..
BUT i'll try to get these posts up asap! (:
Lol, boyf forgotten to pack in his electric shaver, so he had to make do
with razors which he has NEVER tried using before,
and he was like SO freaked out with the experience and so afraid
that he would cut himself, so funny.. hehehe
I really hate those little stubs growing out, so no choice!
You gotta shave even if you're afraid of the razor, bleh! :P
I always wake up really early when i'm on vacation,
i just don't wanna waste my time sleeping in the room when i could be
out enjoying the sun, the pool or the beach, try new and different food,
or even shopping!
So while boyf sleeps till around 10-11am
i'll be by the pool using my netbook/reading a book!
Luckily we got a pool access room so it's really just one step away
from the pool! :D
I really recommend the hotel i stayed in, affordable, awesome room, great service.
I just don't understand why the reviews on tripadvisor seems to
always mention bad service from hotel staffs but during my stay there
they provided impeccable service.. always smiley/friendly and not at all rude.
You can check the information like where i booked the hotel,
pics of hotel/pool etc in my first post, so don't keep bombing me
with the same question OK!
if you haven't read Day #01, here the link: http://bit.ly/aBKiOvFinally dragged boyf out of his dreamland and we headed to the beach
which was less than 5 mins away to have breakfast on the beach!
Ahhhh, i miss Phuket so much.
Went to Kata Beach Seafood on the south part of Kata beach,
there's quite a few different restaurants here btw.. most of the provide breakfast,
American breakfast, pancakes.. toast.. omelet whatever you want! :D
So if you don't want to have your breakfast at the hotel,
walk over to the beach to have breakfast!
lol if you're a guy.. lots of bikini babes to see while you enjoy your breakfast!
View of the beach from Kata Beach Seafood,
hohoho, boyf's new "ray-ban" sunglasses that i bargained from 500baht to 300baht,
i think shopping at kata beach is extremely expensive, as compared to shopping
for the same things in Patong beach, you can bargain more!
Bought my pink terry romper from UNIQLO!
Waiting waiting waiting for our breaaaaakfast~
meanwhile laughing at some cheena people taking photos in
some super mad funny poses on the beach.. we're so mean!!!
nom nom nooooooom.
In September the waves are huge and everyone goes surfing but no snorkeling
cos seriously you really can't see shit in the water cos the waves are so huge!
During the 4 days i was there, the red flag
(meaning no swimming in the sea cos of the huge waves) was constantly up,
but the warnings are always ignored,
everyone goes swimming as usual unless it was like raining really heavily!
So after breakfast we were enjoying the sun and went to errrr.. crash some waves?
hahahas mostly letting the waves crash US, it's so funny boyf keep dragging medeeper into the sea - too deep for my own comfort zone, I'm just not very tall what! Argh.. then the waves caught me and while like trying to get back on my feet ANOTHER wave crashed at me and i did like a 360degree flip..
lol i dunno if you get what i'm trying to say i finally got up
and i was laughing at myself..
Unfortunately it didn't escape my boyf's "eagle eye" and he saw
the whole process of me getting "flipped" by the bloody waves..
and never stopped laughing about it afterwards.. -.-"
So hilarious and embarassing!!!It started to rain so we went back to the hotel, showered and
headed out to find a tuk-tuk to go over to Patong beach for some light shopping.. Tuk tuk from Kata beach to Patong was 350baht, have to bargain with them!headed to Jungceylon shopping mall @ patong, Here's their website: http://bit.ly/2S9fPt
There's a Robinsons, Boots pharmacy, Watsons, Supermarket, Cinema,
IT stuff on the highest level..
oh! i bought 2 iphone case from Jungceylon shopping mall to do another giveaway btw, i know lots of you must be very disappointed cos i only had one of the
Ben & Jerry's iphone case to giveaway awhile ago..
So i'll be doing the iphone case giveaway i brought back from Phuket very soon! (:There's this shop with like a crazy shitload of shoes! lol girls heaven!
But it's not exactly very very cheap or anything and i don't really want new heels
so i didn't get any! Stocked up some of my beauty essentials at Watsons thou! :D
Boyf was dying to rent a jeep to drive around in phuket!
I don't know why guys dream to drive hmm. what seem to me a piece of
metal junk around but oh wells, my next trip to phuket
i'll find out where can we rent a jeep to fulfil my boyf's.. errr lifelong dream?Oh we found this massage place along patong beach..
much more modern and nicely decorated than the usual phuket massage places..
Went in for a foot massage, 250 baht! :DPrice list!
The name of the massage place is Calista Massage !
hate the stupid ugly electric wires or whatever you call that all over phuket,
luckily singapore is not like thaaaaaaat!
Can you imagine if the electric wire thing is not there it's a full view of the beach
while enjoying your foot massage?
Went to have seafood dinner after our super awesome foot massage at Calista!Picked our seafood and chose the method we wanted to get our seafood done!After dinner we walked pass this "mobile bar" super cute pink van!... nightlife at patong, lots of prostitutes arounddddd!
Went back to our hotel to put down our shopping stuff
before going over to Ska Bar @ Kata beach!
Bought a set of lingerie from Wacoal, bandeau bikini, wedges, waterproof pack.. tidbits!!!Went over to Ska Bar @ Kata Beach which is popular amongst the tourists @ Phuket..
