Phuket, Thailand

Just arrived home from Phuket. And until now, everything about Phuket is in my mind. Leaving Phuket was not what I wanted to think about..but now...I'm already here..in Malaysia.
Departed to Phuket at 12.45, 1 March...Though I was sick and having terrible cough, the plan must be worked out. I don't have to mention how hard it was when traveling with poor health. Almost suffering on high altitude. It took about 1 hour 15 minutes to reach Phuket Airport. Straight got a taxi to send us to Nanai Road, which is near to Patong beach. As usual, my mom would think of her tummy first and as for me, I had no appetite at all. Since there were only two of us, I accompanied her to look for halal food stalls or restaurants...n luckily we got one...a stall...owned by Aminah Daud...typical Phuket Muslim...I had duck rice instead of chicken rice and surprisingly...I could finish it though earlier I didn't have the appetite to eat. And this was the starting where me & my mom started to become really friends to her.

On the 2nd March..about 10 pm, Aminah came with her brother. Yakob, in a...shall I say 'truck'?or wagon?whatever...as our transportation.The fun began as I stepped in into that vehicle....1st..we went to Kamala beach..which is one of the famous beaches in Phuket. Took a few pics there. then headed to Surin beach...The beaches are damn clean with fine white sand...clear blue green water...felt like bathing but mom didn't allow me and plus, I didn't bring
my swimming attires...buat penat je ngangkut dari Malaysia...hampehh...



After Surin beach, we went to Patong beach...and there were more tourists...especially from Europe..were sunbathing...cheh...tengok kulit diorg dh mcm ketam bakar....isshh..isshh...I coudn't stand the hot temperature but no longer bother about it once looking at the cooling beautiful gorgeous sceneries on the beaches..


Went to..not sure the name of that place..where I got the chance to ride on elephant...huhuhu...I had waist exercise..that elephant named 'Intela' (not sure of the spelling)..was too 'bumpy'..it walked uphill and maybe affected the posture...so we felt the bumpiness too...but it's fun anyway...There were 4-5 times where it sprayed water droplets to us...nasiblaa water droplet...kalo air..mmg aku ketuk dh kepala gajah tu..muahaha..

45 minutes on that elephant...was long enough because I was a bit tired...sick...Then return to Patong. Aminah and her brother tried to show us how beautiful Phuket is, so they brought us the the uphill part which is known as Prom Thaep Cape. Speechless, marvellous, superb and it is really beautiful.



After enjoying the scenery in Phuket, we went to the fresh market. I tell u..the market there is veeeerrryyyy clean...not even any market in Malaysia is as clean as that market. If I've not mistaken...the market is called..Bansaan...or Banzaan...Fish, crab,prawn,lobster...owh my God...it was really nice...I bought some fish, crab blablabla..with the help of Aminah...n we went back to her stall..n she cooked for us..Wowwww...that's all I can say...


Surprisingly, I thought I had recovered form sickness..but when I was on my way back to Malaysia...I started shivering...headache and coughing badly again
At night...shoppiinnnggggg....at O'Top...not so cheap as compared to Bangkok...then came back....zzzzzzz
3rd March...time to say goodbye...one thing, I really love to go to Phuket again n meet my relative there...Aminah...Love Phuket...mmuaahhhhh
