hello here i am posting my experience in my phuket trip..
[DAY 1]
basically we are near the area of Patong Beach, one of the most popular beaches around phuket.. and stayed in this Best Western Sawaddi Patong Hotel which i can say is realli one of the best u can find there.. the ppl working there are all english-speaking and are quite proficient in that, definitely better than those other hotels that we can find along the streets of patong.. haha.. and wat makes me feel very comfortable is that the facilities and the rooms were exceptionally in good condition too..
very clean eh?? lol.. once u lie on the bed, i can bet u don wanna get up already.. confirm very shiok.. haha..
and den we went to this muslim/indian restaurant in royal paradise hotel to have our lunch.. not realli a nice place to go for muslim food cos its very expensive and the ambience sucks to the core.. the place is so dark that its brightness is just simply based on the sunlight from outside the restaurant.. the most unworthy thing i spent on throughout the trip... i emphasis again -- THE MOST UNWORTHY!!
in the nit, we were only just looking around the patong area and decided to have our dinner at a quite enthusiastic restaurant selling cheap seafood..

the bangla road.. busy and sleazy street it is, its still filled wif lots of tourists and locals seeking to have a good time at nit.. be it party or pure drinking onli, its a lively place to have fun.. one of the funny thing i found out about the place was the tiger shows.. got many other varieties of shows available there too.. can guess wat are those? its ping pong show, egg show, banana show and all sorts of weird weird show names.. according to my frens, they said its smth like the thai girls use their lower private part to shoot out ping pong balls or crack an egg or watever.. almost wanted to go but my frens not so friendly so never go in the end.. wasted..
[DAY 2]
we dedicated this entire day for the patong beach lol.. sounds funny but realli we spent the whole day at the beach..
the beach looks so much better and lively than our singapore beach.. but alot of the ppl visiting the beach are caucasians.. its realli a whole lot of them walking around that place.. and their dress code is simply topless for guys and bikini for the girls.. abit shocked by the culture there but i still find it alright though.. haha.. for the waters, it seems that we can realli go quite far and its still very shallow.. its quite a nice feeling though.. playing around wif frens in the waters and i learnt quite a bit for swimming.. lol.. hopefully next time when i go try swimming again i can get the technique rit.. haha..
there's also thai ppl walking around to ask whether we wanna go to another island to try snorkeling.. we tried to bargain wif the guy until its about 400 baht per person den we set off for the so-called Freedom Island for the snorkeling experience.. lol.. one thing funny about our grp is we always use the alot-of-people advantage to get cheaper prices.. haha.. but its fun.. anyway here are some photos we took while on the small boat to the freedom island..
this is the photo of the patong beach from our small boat
the guy who intro to us the package to another island (he calls himself - Bad Boy)
and so we went to the Freedom Island to snorkel as well as having our lunch at the only restaurant available.. the onli part of the island that we have been too is the beach and the restaurant onli actually.. cos its jus a small place simply for the snorkel purpose.. but eventually we bought a volleyball to play volleyball and beach soccer also.. haha.. quite a fun thing to do there when u have nth else to do.. lol.. and den we finally left that place at abt 3 or 4 plus..
(JET SKI) after that i went back to that patong beach and tried playing wif jet ski.. woah.. the speed was far more powerful than i tot initially.. u can literally feel like ur body is pulled back from the dash of the jet ski.. lol.. we went quite far away from the shore to route around a star virgo cruise ship which was stationed there.. its nice to play wif the jet ski..
at nit we had our dinner at the royal paradise hotel dinner buffet.. 250 baht for a buffet.. worth ba? abt 10 dollars sing like that.. not a bad dinner.. had alot of food and desserts..
towards the midnight we went to party at a quite modern looking club, Sound Music Club, which was situated at the back of the Jungceylon shopping centre.. the music there that night was hip-hop/r&b.. very suitable for me cos i like that kind of music.. hehe..
the funny thing abt that night was that we went to the hollywood club den there's this thai girl who wanted to grind sadik but he did not grind her.. and it seems that she was quite pissed and somehow like complained to her manager.. lol.. i don realli understand but i can see it from her hand signs.. we felt like very not our kind den we went back to sound music club after that den back to hotel to sleep..
[DAY 3]
the ATV and elephant trekking day!! its one of the thing i was looking forward in this phuket trip as well other than the jet ski.. we took a short trip to a more jungle place for the ATV and elephant trekking tour..
me and trent on ATV
grp photo before taking off for the tour
us during the break
ATV is a MUST-TRY thing in thailand man.. the most fun thing on ATV tour is crossing different terrain, including like up-slope and down-slope and uneven terrain.. lol.. unofficial excitement comes from speeding on smooth track/road.. haha =X
after the ATV tour, we went for the elephant trekking.. initially still quite afraid of the elephant.. didnt dare to step on the elephant skin.. though its very thick and rough.. the one which me and sadik rode on was quite a lazy bum.. cos it kept on stopping along the track to sniff the leaves around and den wan, don wan, wan, don wan to eat the leaves.. lol..
our elephant driver
sadik and me
the skin of the elephant is realli very very thick.. den the hair also very solid kind.. lol.. the elephant driver keep saying can step on the elephant but i don dare.. or rather i scared to hurt the elephant.. halfway through the trekking, sadik went to sit on the elephant skin itself.. haha.. i tink he'd feel that the elephant very thick-skinned too?? lol.. anyway when we dismount the elephant and bought pineapples for the elephant to eat, the elephant is like crying lo.. if u'd refer to the first photo where i was feeding the elephant, u can see clearly that there's a white stretch of dunno wat flowing from the elephant eyes.. it seems that it realli cried.. felt like so sad for the elephant.. so poor thing..
for our dinner on the 3rd day, we had the thailand's kfc.. i ordered this meal which consists of 2 pieces of chicken and 3 little drumlets in hot and spicy flavour.. super hot man.. luckily the drink was enough to cover for it.. cos its like bigger than the big gulp in singapore.. drink until wanna vomit.. haha.. after all i still tink singapore's chicken still the best.. haha..
[DAY 4]
did nth much on the last day cos it was raining very heavily from the morning.. and literally we were simply jus staying inside the hotel room the whole morning.. lol.. quite shiok too.. haha.. wif the cooling weather.. after checking out at 12pm, we took a minibus from the hotel to the jungceylon shopping centre to have our lunch.. which was at the food court which sells very very cheap food.. den in the afternoon we played winning eleven on the TV available near the arcade area.. out of nowhere a guy from dunno wat country challenged us to a game.. it was so embarrassed by a mere ang moh.. lol... i guess we're jus still considered noob.. haha..
