Truly Thailand :)

I wanted to be away from Singapore on my son's first birth day and i randomly chose this place with out any expectation as i jus got a good deal for the vacation from Marriotts. It was jus 4 days trip and truly memorable one. Here are some tit bits incase if you guys thinking about a vacation break.


There are millions of budget airlines flying from Singapore and u can get a round trip ticket for just over 100 SGD (better plan atleast 3 months in advance).



The stay in Marriotts is the most exciting part. The lovely villa along the side of Mai Khao beach is the ideal place. The sunset view is just what i wanted. I initially intend to stay in resort and chill out but my parents wanted to look around and there fore toured selected few


Though many prefer to visit the jamaes bond island and phi phi island... I just stuck with the phi phi as i dont want to stress out much on hanging around. However, i enjoyed my first snorkelling experience and it was more than an experience to remember to swim around the remote island, clear water, observing the underwater world... hmmm one more 'to do'added :)


The phi phi island is the place where the movie 'The Beach'was shot and now i guess i need to see this movie. The Thai people are in general very nice and much respectful with the way in greeting people


The unique point about phuket is the world famous show called 'Fantasea' Visually stunning. The ticket price is around 1500 Bhatts (60 SGD approx.) and to me that is the best way to spend 1500 Bhatts in Phuket :)


Its indian tradition that any one on their Bday visit temple and for my son its another experience to visit thai temple on his bday :) it was the chelong temple and the look of the buddha statues and the thai praying procedure very much resembled indian way.



Over all, i suggest this place as a must visit place in South east asia and for any pleasant vacation one need to find the best resort/hotel to make the stay cheerful.


Lookin at the coconuts, elephants, sea, boats, people, traditions, dance, fights, felt like it was a lovely kerala trip we always missed :)
