4D3N in Phuket

People ask why i go to Phuket.



After doing my research on various travel-related websites and blogs, I decided it would be too much a temptation to visit those hot bikini cladded babes, nice beaches and cool nightspot despite the current political riot in Bangkok.

Without thinking twice I immediately log on into Airasia.com, grab a free seat, and wait for another 5 months before I started my journey, to the island which was once hit by ocean tsunami once back in December 2004.


We have chosen Patong Aspery Hotel for the fact that it is a new hotel, with a 4 star facilities and 2-Star staying rate. (Note that at Low season, we are only paying around 1000 Bath per night). Completed with free Wi-Fi network, free internet access at the lobby, not mentioning the nice swimming pools and superb breakfast, I guess the price is quite justifiable.
Camwhoring in the room.

Alot of people might think, my favourite photo in Phuket would looked something like this.



Too bad it is not. Check this out.


I think he knew someone will always going to grab a photo of him sleeping in the "tut tut chia", and then report it to the tourism board, so he decided to sleep in the most ridiculous way i have ever seen. (Anyway I've tried this at home, resulted in suffocation and breathing difficulty)

And of course, a trip to Phuket would mean nothing but the same like walking around wearing a torn underwear if you did not take up the island tour. The price would range from 1100 Baht to 2500 Baht. Rule of thumb is always ask for discount at least 50% from the printed price tag on those travel vouchers. And it is not hard to do your comparison ad these tour agents is everywhere, easier than to find the pisang goreng stalls in Malaysia.

Our first stop, Phi Phi Island. All is going well until...


i stumbled upon this sign.


It is like bumping into your mother-in-law when you hit the club with a lady other than her own daugther.

Next, the monkey island. Needless to say, a lot of monkeys, grabbing pineapples.



Monkey that grabbed watermelon. (The ultimate so-hai photo award).



In the afternoon, We stopped by the Phi Phi Don island to have lunch for the day. By that time, we are starving like hell. This is one of the place which was hitted by the tsunami in 2004.



After lunch, i decided to go back to the boat to camwhore again.

Two different nation, one club, one number.

To be honest, wearing the man utd jersey around Phuket has made me a popular figure, and approachable all the times! You can always heard people shouting:

1. Man utd, we are the champion~!!!


2. Yeah, Rooney, I love you!!!


3. You man Utd? me toooo!!!!


I felt like a celebrity.



Luckily never bump into this van while walking around the jersey. Who knows the driver will just knock me off the Patong street.


A jersey or t-shirt in Patong may cost somewhere around 150 Baht to 300Baht. So, make sure you forget your own dignity, and fight like an auntie for the best deal you can get!

During the tour, managed to grab a few more breathtaking pictures during the island tour.

The perfect photos for your desktop wallpapers.



There were moments where i felt like jumping straight into the water. But the fear of sharks, jellyfish or killerwhale (ok i exageratted it), i have decided not to. we did stopped to do snorkelling though.


Can you spot the hottie? (She is a japanese)


Another hottie...

And another one hottie, more than you can "handle" actually. Mind you, this photo has cost me 50 Baht! But you can't do this in Malaysia, so i guess this can be considered cheap for the fact that you got to grab her boobs just for RM5.
This will be the only time when you guys doesn't suffer from any kind of erection while grabbing a pair of boobs in your hand. (I should have wore a Liverpool jersey while taking this photo)



(Warning: In Malaysia, any attempt of doing so may result in severe head injuries.)
This photo was taken in a night spot near Patong Beach. At one time, i felt like i was a hopeless student in the classroom when i was talking to this "she-male"

After taking the photo i strike up a conversation with him/her:

Me: Er..Can i ask you a question?

He/She: Yeah sure, what you wanna ask? (Mind you his/her english is not broken)

Me: Are you a...a....er..you know...(trying to find the right word for it)

He/She: Yes!!I am a lady boy, with a breast. (Squeezing her boobs for me to see).

Me: (Watching in awe).....

He/She: And a penis too....

Me: (Eyebrow raised to extreme height).....

Yeah right. I also have.



(I am hoping that this time the CEO of 7-eleven will email me...).

Apparently they don't really have money to complete "overhaul" themselves, so transformation need to be taken in stages. After wishing her all the best in pursue of their dream to be a real woman, we continue to stroll around the Banglalore street.

It is a cool nightspot, like Bangsar or Bintang Walk in Malaysia, where drinks pouring endlessly, "ah-gua" shows, and lots and lots of foreigners lurking around.


Motorbikes is the common transportation in Phuket. On the third day we decided to head off for a ride to the Phuket town. I managed to get a white and brand new scooter.


A cost of renting a motorbike c/w full tank of fuel is around 200++ Baht for one whole day. Be sure to check for existing scratches and minor damage before you drive off.

We did lost our way a few time, not knowing where to go. But there were motorist kind enough to lead us all the way to Phuket town. We met at least 3 superkind motorist on that particular day.
But never try to follow a stranger in Malaysia. You may ended up like this.

On the final day, after checking out from the hotel, in order to kill of time before our flight at 9pm, we did this.

Watching "Iron man 2" in cinema.


The movie ticket cost somewhere around 140 Bath for the cheapest seat you can get. They even have a VIP seating! (Warning: No english subtitle provided)

Even the loo in the cinema is so modern that if a Japanese saw it, they may detach it, bring it back to Japan and do R&D into the design, reconstruct it, name it as i-pee and start selling it!

Too bad i don't have the picture here. It is actually a loo with "shooting target" that will move around following the direction of your pee!!!

Another thing, you don't have to be worried when everyone around you stand up before the movie started. It is in order to pay respect to their national anthem.

Finally when i touched down in Malaysia, i have to conclude that this trip is nothing short from awesome.

I will definitely come back next time.

Phuket, i miss you
