Finally...here's the photos from my phuket trip!
My 9 days leave has ended.. but its all fulfilling except for some minor events that happened. Nevertheless, it was a good 9 days.. especially the phuket trip! I want to go back again.. and this time i will make sure i wouldnt oversleep to go to phi phi island. I want to go watch the simon show and the fantasea.. i want to spend more time at the beach..i want to go shooting.. LOL. So many things we didnt do..but it was still very enjoyable.

I get pretty restless when the itinerary is not followed..but i realised that we gain from it as well because we were so relax. No hurry to do anything.. no wakeup calls.. just our own world, on a quiet beach of phuket..away from all the chaos. The only con is that we are so far from patong beach that we have to travel 25mins just to get there.

Alright..the photos!

Us at airport.. I always report at T3 but never the chance to browse the shops because i'm always in a rush.. so we toured at T3 especially when our flight delay for close to 2 hs(So angry!!!). Took Silk air to Phuket.. i think they're good! We got the emergency exit aisle seat.. the check in staff was very friendly and accomodating. Since mine is a staff travel, she had to go some hassles but she didnt stop smiling for a second. Hehe. Food was good though i aint hungry. Service is similar to our CGK flights, only down part is there's no in flight entertainment but they has those small screens every other seats that plays "Just for Laughs"..sufficient to keep me entertained for 2 hours. And finally we touched down Phuket!! I really didnt know what to expect. Both of us were so scared that our villa is a scam because nobody seems to know anything about this villa AT ALL. Got lost on the cab...but thankfully we found our way there.... Oh yah i must add on: My new gold gel nails for CNY! =D & thats the new camera pouch that dearest bel got for me in Hong Kong. So cute!!! I love it! Thanks girl!

Our Villa...with private pool!!

At first we were quite disappointed with two things: The pool and the toilet. =( The pool wasnt as big as we expected but of course its more than abundance for the two of us! And since its a one bedroom.......our toilet didnt come with a bathtub!!!(The two bedrooms one have everything that we see on the website.) Of all things?!?! Yes. =( But on the overall it was still very nice. Very private, very quiet, very peaceful. It's a very different concept from a hotel. We're pretty much on our own. It's just like owning a studio landed for 4 days. There was broadband internet so we are pretty in touch with the world. And the villa assign us a handphone for contact with the manager. For our 4 days stay there, we've never met the manager at all. So weird right? The staffs were all very friendly! The security was incredibly helpful, so is the technician & the receptionist. Only downside is that they dont speak much english. The only person who speaks fluent english is the manager. My fav part of the villa: The pool & the bed!!! I love 4 post bed! It's just sooooooooo........romantic. haha. And its so comfy!!! =D

We couldnt resist the pool! We had Rose champagne in the fancy martini glass because the villa only have wine glass, no Champagne glass.. The the ciggie photo was taken when both of us were too bo liao while waiting for the damn taxi. Made us wait for almost 2 hs!

Took the taxi out to Patong beach to have seafood! Ended day 1 at 2am..yawn!

Totally didnt expect Day 2 to start so late...we overslept!!! Woke up at like 3pm, half the day was gone. It's supposed to be relaxing holiday..so yes we've the right to sleep in! LOL. Breakfast was prepared & served in the villa by the maid. She was very sweet..but i didnt see her all 3 days because we overslept all 3 days. We rented a car and visited our nearest beach- Bang Tao Beach. This area is filled with alot of posh retreats like banyan tree, sheraton and laguna. Its quiet because each is very self contained and they have their own private beach and stuffs. So we were pretty much on our own.

Wasted no time.. we went to grab our dinner. A table was reserved at Sam's place at Holiday Inn. The steak is AWESOME. One of the best i've tasted. The meat melts in my mouth. I could easily finish another one. Highly recommended! Of course the bill doesnt come cheap with the good wine and steak! Celebrated raymond's bday there with a small cake. Totally didnt expect the staffs to come up with the big hoo ha surprise. Both of us were shocked!!!!

After dinner, it was followed by clubbing with Ryan & Aaron. Ryan's my colleague and aaron is his batchboy! It was such a hit clubbing there. It was more of laughing than clubbing. We went to those ah gogo bars at bangla street. They have girls touting openly there, girls dressed in schoolgirl dancing on the bar tops and transsexual hitting on our guys, kissing, playing, GRABBING. LOL. Fun! And our trans waitress was so friendly that she even offered to take photo with us and me and her kiss and hug before we part.

Day 3 at Patong beach. As usual, we overslept and missed the whole phi phi island trip..but we rewarded ourselves at Patong beach. The beach isnt as beautiful as the beach on maldives but i equally enjoyed myself. Who can say they dont love the combination of the sun, good company, magazine, mp3 player, jet ski, new friends, listening to the waves.........and BEER? This is absolutely my dream retreat holiday!

Got to ride the jet ski for the first time of my life. It was good because i could let it all go at high speed without worrying about traffic police and my license. wahaha.

and then come the beautiful sunset and knowing the two italian guys and the friendly thai jet ski rental guy..jimmy!

Sadly but yes.. our dinner on our last night at this pretty good seafood restaurant. We had lobster, crab, oysters(MY FAV!!!) and then we walked around before heading back to the villa to enjoy the serenity for the last time.

It marked the end of our phuket trip. I cant wait to go again! Phuket see you again!!!
