ok.... i'm backtracking here.... but i didn't get a chance to enter a message in thailand before i left.
phuket was a nice way to end a great holiday.... 3 nights in a hotel room and relaxing and reading.
Patong beach was ok... not a very nice swimming beach - and it rained for the first 2 days here... but on the Thursday i got to go on my boat trip to Phi Phi island. It was just like the postcards. Crystal clear water and loads of fish.
The sun was out and i got some sun baking in... and some snorkling and reading my book on the beach. A VERY nice way to finish my trip.
Shopping consisted of just cheap dvd's.... there wasn't much else on offer.
But i did manage to have a lovely 2hr spa pampering at the hotel which did wonders for my horrile dry skin after 3 weeks of back packing!
But i'm writing this on Monday 25th June. I arrived back on Friday just gone and have now caught up on my sleep.... but not finished unpacking yet - oh well, i'll get around to it later.
The holiday was great fun, not sure if i can name my favourite place or event - it was all special for so many different reasons... but to sum it all up i'd have to say that Californian's (and American's in general) LOVE their big food and BIG cars.... New Yorkers love to walk, Londoners love their pubs and warm beer, and the power lines in Phuket are an accident waiting to happen!!!
thanks to everyone i met along the way who made my trip more exciting.... and to those at home who will have to save up with me to join me for my next adventure - wherever and whenever that will be!
But if there is one thing i have learnt from my travels, as much as i love seeing new places and cultures - we really do live in the "lucky country" in Australia!!!!
take care
luv kathxxx
