Day 2 & the adventure continues ...

We both had REALLY weird dreams that first night .... And awoke quite early ....neither felt safe .....
We decided to see (with my trusty iPad) whether we could get a reasonable deal somewhere else .... And found a great deal at the Patong Merlin where we had both stayed about 20 years ago!!! We went to breakfast t the Amata - which further strengthened our resolve to move - and within an hour were in the lobby of the Patong Merlin hotel - and checked in to our beautiful, pool view room - feeling like our holiday had now begun!!
After unpacking - again - we headed off to the pool for some lunch and a swim ... Then a spot of investigating the local shops - and being accosted by tailors and others spruiking fo business ....Before I came back to the room for a nanna nap - Caz stayed by the pool - reading and sunning herself .... I badly needed some sleep!!! A couple of glasses of wine on our balcony - and some nibblies before dinner .... A lovely way to finish our first real afternoon of holiday!! We'd casually mentioned when we checked in that we'd stayed here 20 years before .... And a beautiful fruit plate arrived at our room!! We thought we'd try the Seafood Buffet at the hotel - booked a table (no need) - and toodled down to the Seaview Terrace for dinner ..... About 5 couples there ... And the seafood buffet consisted of about three types of seafood and lots of other stuff .... But at least we weren't far from home!!! A relatively early night on a much more comfy bed .... And the day was complete ....
