Traffic lights to Phuket - Part 4

Day 3 of our trip...

We woke up early to go to the beach, to pick seashells (for pompy), and to tan and swim (for sil and me). When we reached the beach, we were greeted by lotsa beach chairs!!


Rows and rows of chairs!

And the locals will go "Morning miss, want banana boat? Parasailing? Jetski? Beach chairs? 50baht whole day" on and on..... So we mastered the skill of ignoring. Haha..


The tiles that paved the whole of the street. It looks especially nice under the sun.

The beach. The gradient for the sand is so small, the water only reached to our waist after we walked for about 10m into the sea.
After soaking up the sun, we went for breakfast back at the hotel. And we saw Jacky Chan's brother!!!

Looks like hoh!

Not much pics of us in the afternoon as we went SHOPPING!! Verdict: Pompy's the best bargainer! Heh. Must slash the price they quote to till at least a third.


Paddle pop ice cream cart! Complete with the jingle.
Paddle pop, whee, paddle, ooh, super duper yummy!
Then we head down to Macs for some dessert to cool down.

Iced milo float, berry oreo mcflurry and choco oreo mcflurry.





Then a tsunami came!! Pompy and Sil managed to get away... ... but not me...


Haha...


Tuk-tuks in traffic lights colour!!

Pompy and me and the streets of Patong.


Lovely sunset.
Slippers version.



Crocs version

More shopping!!
After shopping for so long, we were hungry. So we went in search of food. And we found this!


Our noodle soup with so much condiments that we just added abit of everything. It's so delicious that we all agreed it has "妈妈的味道". A homely feeling.


The auntie who made such delicious noodles. She jokingly demanded 100baht for every pic taken. =)

After dinner, we went exploring again. We walked and walked and turned into this lane...

The infamous Bangla Road, where there are many pubs.

Guess we were there too early (around 8-9pm). So, din managed to see any action. Haha. Think it was too dangerous for us 3 girls to venture around this kinda places in a foreign county alone.

After leaving Bangla Road, we continue with our shopping. And we passed by this roadside stall selling banana pancake.


And we bought one chocolate banana pancake. Yummy! It's actually banana wrapped in prata, and covered with condensed milk and chocolate! HEAVENLY. Coz the banana's superly sweet.


Look at our happy faces!

Not satisfied with not being able to go to a pub, we decided to go to the local supermart to get some booze and chips.

GIANT lollipop!!


Look at their excited faces. I think the lollipop's weighs about 1kg!

Our own party in the comfort of our own room.
Our water supply for the 4days. I remember the tour guide on the first day joked that we wanted to bath with it. I guess we should have done that. I have rashes on the last few days. Water not clean? I dunno.
Day 4...
We had to check out of the hotel at 12 noon, and our flight's at 2230. So we were left "roomless" for about 8 hours. In the morning, Sil and me went to the beach to catch the last rays of the sun, while pompy took some pictures then stayed in the room to watch TV.


One of my favourite pictures of the beach.
After checking out, pompy and I booked a Thai traditional massage at Patong Traditional Thai Massage. And we were picked up in a tuk-tuk!

The massage was not what I thought it was. But guess I was too tired, so I feel asleep halfway. It was rather painful at some points, lotsa trigger points being pressed. I think they will make very good PTs. Haha.
Patong Beach in full swing. These pictures were taken at about 12noon. Crazy people.
Lotsa ang mohs...

After the massage, we went for a pedicure/manicure!


Contented and relaxed...


Cute sign!
We went back to the previous day's noodle stall for out last dinner there.

And who can forget that Sil got asked to a disco! She was so happy when that guy guess that she was 23yo. Haha.
Butterly memories signing off....

I forgot... a picture of our hotel!
End note: If there's someone had an unexplainable illness, which origin could not be pin-pointed, there is a high possibility that the spouse is guilty of posioning the person. *winks
