Me & Kathy Reached Phuket airport around 0745. As usual, after arriving and going thru the customs. I felt that I took Singapore immigration for granted again. Waited quite a while to clear the customs, eager to start my fun filled holiday. As it was still early, our transport guide took us to tour around to buy the local stuffs before making our way to the hotel to check in. After checking in, we went on to take a walk around the whole of Patong Beach and went strolling along the beach. The sun was good, striking down on me, prickling my senses thru my skin feeling the sea breeze blowing thru my face. Looking at half naked glistering bodies tanning in the heat. I almost felt like stripping down to my berms and lie there to tan too. We then went Jet skiing! It was crazy, I was like a Ghost Rider throttling my bike like a speed demon racing thru the waters like a madman. The faster I went the more thrilling it got, until I held down the throttle and forgotten to release it to slow down. I was basically bouncing off the water with the sea spraying water in my face and getting a free sea salt facial scrub! Kathy was more the safety rider going fast only when needed to. When the ride ended, we went back to the hotel to shower rest and change up. We went for the "Simon Caberet" in the evening, I was shocked beyond disbelieve that those "ladies" performing on stage were once male! Imagine me with a gapping mouth popping it open like a fish in the water. Hahaha... When the shocked finally ended, we were whisked off outside of the threatre and the "ladies" calling out to the audience to take photos with them. One of the guides then popped by to ask me if I wanted to watch the "thai girl" show. I grinned and looked at Kathy, searching for her approval because she was a girl and I was wondering if she would feel uncomfortable watching that show. She nodded and agreed cause it was something that we both had never seen before and have heard so much of. We took our transport and they dropped us off at the location and we went into the place. As much as I would like to describe what went on during that particular show. I think it would be best to see it for yourself. For me, once was quite enough. Never again would I watch a show like that ever again. It was an eye opener as to what the human anatomy is able to achieve with much skill and precision. That much I agree. After all that excitement for the 1st day, we went back to the hotel.

Woke up really early the next morning. Stuffed myself with the hotel breakfast and we made our way to the pier to take our boat trip! We went Island Hopping and Phi Phi Island. I would say it was an amazing trip. The water was clear with fishes. Whenever we stopped at different places, the guide told us that we could get off the speed boat and go snorkling around. He also told us if we wanted to we could leap off the front of the speed boat for fun, which of course, my mischevious nature starting edging me to do it. So I asked Kathy to try using the Camera to record me jumping off the boat. Which unfortunately, didn't manage to, TWICE! Lol... It was fun though. Took lots of photos (which I hope I can link it up to the Title soon.) I was totally burnt after that trip. Had to apply loads of moisturiser on myself.

Was super tired when I woke up that morning. Went for breakfast with Kathy, then to the pool to laze around and tan some more. Even had a conversation with one of the guest there. Found out that he was from Finland with his wife and little girl for 2 weeks in Phuket. After which I said goodbye to them and went back to the room to change up. Ended up sleeping more then went off to Karon beach to jalan around. Karon beach was much more quieter then Patong. We only went to shop around a little before making our way around, walked like crazy I tell you.... our legs were so tired. We stopped at a cafe and had drinks waiting for the sunset. Took some nice shots and bargained with the Tuk-Tuk drivers to get our ride back to Patong beach. We decided to go to some bar and have some drinks. But the bar was so boring! The girls who were pole dancing we like toys with batts repeating the same thing over and over and over and over and over again! I finally gave up and started watching soccor on TV. Kathy was like so shocked that I was watching soccor. We decided to leave and go get some drinks and go back to the hotel room to "nua", pig out on our snacks, have our drinks and watch TV.

Couldn't take it anymore. Our bodies were aching like crazy, it felt as if with every step I took my bones were cracking and my muscles were ripping apart. It was so sore that we decided to have a Thai Massage. It was the first time I had a massage, I was so tense. Lol... My close friends would know that I don't like strangers to touch me. The lady who was massaging me was quite nice, she was damn good too, started cracking all the bones in my body. It was quite painful at first, but after the whole traumatising event. I felt real good, like all the aches and pains were gone. We then went back to take a shower, rest up a little and went off shopping for gifts. Had a great dinner too. But didn't bring a camera to take a picture of the poor lobster we ate. We actually dragged our feets all over Patong beach trying to buy and collect this particular brand of cuttle fish for my colleague back home in SUNNY SINGAPORE. I ended up with almost 100 packets. Lol...

Finally, our trip ended and we were on our way back to Singapore. Had an eventful trip. Had great company, my friend Kathy was really fun to hang out with. Thanks girl! Now its back to reality.
