DAY 7:
Worst rain and thunderstorm all night long, windows were shaking form the massive crashes of thunder. Woke up to a very gloomy day...all day :-( Went for a short stroll along the beach and had lunch in a street stall called ''The Red Duck''. Mrs F asked for Thai fat noodles with beef and Mr F, chicken pad Thai. Mrs F discovered that Thai fat noodles are big, nasty slimy things, guessing the same sort of texture of oysters! So Mr F kindly swapped his lunch.....and later had upset belly! On the plus side, we decided on our next destination and Phil booked our transport to ''Koh Samui'', another Thai island. We had the option of getting a plane for 75 pounds each, journey taking 1hr 15mins or taking the bus for 5hrs, then the ferry for 1hr costing 10 pounds each. We went for the backpackers budget option! Also we didn't wanna keep taking the easy option of flying from place to place, but to experience some rough travelling. Please God its a safe, rough travel! Hopefully tomorrow's weather will brighten up......
PHUKET
DAY 8:
Nope, weather no better today! It rained really hard first thing and Mr F had to time it to perfection to go out and get our breakfast. There's a bakery just down the road where we buy croissants. We heat them up in the microwave in our room with a cup of coffee every morning. We didn't get out till early afternoon, but just went for a short walk to get some supplies. Got back in the hotel and went for a dip in the pool.....not an overly exciting day......
Black, gloomy clouds covering the sky
The boys on the other hand are very much enjoying themselves :-)
