Phuket Trip 1

Well, if I were to rate my Phuket Trip with my Nie friends this time round.. shall be 50%. Instead of saying Phuket discovery trip, shall say it is more to NIE gathering trip. We spent most time in catching up with each other ... not really to the extend of exploring Phuket .. so, nvm.. 每个旅途都会有遗憾。但这些遗憾是为了让下一次的重游旧地更有满足感。

So, Phuket story shall start with my rushing off from my school Open House event that day. The Open House thing was a bit hiccup. Afternoon session before I rushed off to airport suddenly turn out to be only 1 student helper instead of 4 .. due to some miscommunication wit another teacher, the students thought they no need to come school. Desperately, I could only ask one of my morning session helpers to carry on the afternoon session. Feel terribly bad to ask her stay back for a while.. But couldnt find some other to replace.. Thank god on the way to airport, my fav student called up and asked whether I need any student helper.. so.. finally, could put down any work burden before going Phuket.

4 of us, me, CL, Johnson and Cwei are the first four to go Phuket.. another 2 friends will meet up with us the next day.. The first night basically was walking around Phuket , Patong area to explore the place.

2nd morning in Phuket, we have a relax morning while waiting for LT and YC ... Have a long breakfast at the rooftop restaurant in the hotel. The swimming pool is just beside the restaurant.. although is really quite small, but it is facing the vast blue sea of Phuket.. I do have the temptation to swim in the pool... hmm. After the breakfast, we went to the beach have a stroll there. That was the time we saw people swimming and playing with the wave .. It makes us so tempted that after standing beside the beach for few minutes, we decided to back hotel and change to our swimsuit. Despite the burning hot sun, playing with the great wave was such a fun thing, the wave was quite high and it is something like sailing except without the sailboat. Seriously, this is one of my fav activities among my phuket trip this time.

After LT and YC arrived, we went for our city half day tour.. Went to this Kata View Point where you can oversee the whole Kata beach view. Also to this Big Buddha statue in Phuket. Kind off similiar to Hong Kong one. Also on top of the hill ... Went to a few more places like the cashewnut factory. Weekend market. Actually the weekend market is the only attraction we voted to go for the city tour.. but in the end , I am the only one who bought stuff from there. Bought 1 dress, 1 skirt and a bag.. and that's also the reason why I left with such restricted budget after that...
