Phuket trip 30Apr-3May, Day 1 30Apr

This yr there's many long weekend..so wanted to avoid stoning at hm..we planned for a trip....Initially wanted to go HK, but after calculating it was way too expensive..so we settled with Phuket..though I know I may hate the sun, just go ahead, cos butt is really itching for a trip already hehe.. And surprisingly we love Phuket a lot!..

Weather was perfect, less humid & windy ..though the sun still so big and shinny! My parents & Kaylen sent us off at airport..waved byebye to kaylen was easier than I thought..hehe.. Jetstar was delayed by 20+mins..and arrived in Phuket at close to 10am..

Board into a airport to city transfer minivan...which cost us 150baht each..along the way they stop at a travel agency..but it was alright about 15mins only.. And finally checked into our small boutique hotel burasari at close to 11am+...along the way the van dropped guest a different and yet much bigger hotel especially the milenium that was attached to jungceylon mall..made us wowow... Luckily our hotel was quite alright too..so beautiful decorated and the pool though small looked so pretty with all the plants.

After left the luggage, we walked to Patong beach..about 3mins walk..I was surprised that Patong beach so quiet and quite nice looking too..though alot of ppl had commented the beach look dirty..but hey, it look fine to me! Since it was lunch time we decided to go find food..and then Charlie the taxi driver found us, and offered 300baht per day to drive us around..He brought us to ulu place for lunch...lunch was so so..then we went to Karon beach, Karon lookout, Kata beach,Elephant ride, the big buddha, and finally shopping at local product to get all the bak hu food home, upon our request. After back in hotel, we still managed to have a fast dip at hotel pool before going out to look for dinner..

Dinner was at somewhere near the OTOP market near hotel..again the market was very quiet...there, I had my best mango with glutonious rice...
