It is our last full day in Phuket- I can't believe we are leaving Thailand tomorrow!
It's been a crazy adventure here and so far, we've been learning a lot and have been having a blast.
We slept in this morning only because Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 1 was on. It is such a bad movie, yet so addicting at the same time!
Today, we decided to visit the rest of the sites in Phuket and go into Phuket Town to visit the local shops and markets. We wanted to make sure that we saw as much as we could before we left this beautiful island! From our villa, we can see the big buddha, even though it is one hour away! It is the only site that we couldn't see in Phuket- maybe next time!
We realized that we had a blast with our motorbikes in Patong Beach so we asked the cab driver to drop us off at a motorbike rental shop where we rented a bike again! We got to see so much and drive all around town- we would never have been able to go around to these places on foot.
We first stopped at the main shopping plaza in Phuket, it's called Central Festival. There were a lot of shops but even more food courts- boy do Thai people know how to eat! As mentioned, we are now so sick of Thai food (as great as it is) and we are craving for a hamburger! So of course, we ate lunch at a McDonalds.
We walked around the plaza some more after lunch and then decided to take an adventure all over town. We found a local market and got some snacks and even got to see a local pet shop- yes those are puppies behind me! I miss my Zeusy Bear!
We found a big warehouse market where the locals do their shopping- Super Cheap. They had everything. Everything and anything you can think of! I saw a packet of envelopes that my family used to use in Burma- it got me pretty excited. I'm a dork.
We then cruised around some more and just caught some amazing views of the island of Phuket. Beautiful!
After our day cruising around town, we returned the bikes and got some dinner at the local shopping plaza (KFC Chicken mmmmMm) and then got another massage- I think this makes it #4 on our trip.
I also got to get my IT geekiness out at the IT World section! :)
And that's it for Phuket! We are heading to Singapore late tomorrow evening so we are planning to do a late check out tomorrow afternoon and just lounge around our private villa before we head out.
We are staying at the St. Regis in Singapore so we have some high hopes for our room- I hope it's better than our room here at the Westin!
See you all in Singapore!
