We were up at 4am today to get a bus to the airport for our flight to Phuket. We'd got most of our things ready lastnight so just pulled on our clothes & went to check out. We walked down to the bus stop at the end of khao san road and gathered with everyone else. Got to the airport and checked in, all very smooth and no delays! Flight went well, had to get one of those busses to the plane but still managed to get 2 emergency seats. When decending into Phuket we could see all the small islands dotted about in the sea below us. Landed and can you believe, it was raining! Got a taxi to our hostel; SquareOne. The hostel is lovely, very new and clean. Have a huge room with ensuite and power shower. Pure Bliss!
We went for some lunch before checking our bank accounts and having a power nap! When we went for lunch we took a walk around the town, (the hostel lent us 2 umbrellas). Very touristy area. Picked up lots of leaflets on tours to James Bond island etc, to have a look at back at the hostel. After our nap we went for dinner and watched the Man U vs Everton match. Went for an evening stroll as the rain had finally stopped and came accross a really nice travel agency. We spoke to the lady, who was really nice - lived here all her life so knows her stuff. We booked onto a tour for Monday that includes everything we wanted to do, cost 1500 Baht each, abit pricey compared to others that we have done, but think it will be worth it.
Our hostel were having a party tonight that we were invited to, we went for a drink and they insisted we have some food, was really nice, they are such a nice family that run the hostel - they all chatted to us etc and made us feel welcome. It was the big sisters Birthday. We were very tired so after we had something to eat we said goodnight and headed up to bed.
