25/05/12 - Here comes the rain...



These Thai's new a few things about style!





























First breakfast at the resort, and it did not disappoint – buffet time! Made the call that it was so extensive that we’d try and cope with two meals a day and really load up in the morning…

Cool Kata beach architecture

Room with a view - shame
it looked out on the rain!
With bloated bellies, we got around 30 minutes of sunshine before the clouds and rain descended. As we’d already realised, our timing in Phuket was at the start of the rainy season – it now made a lot more sense why we’d got such a good deal!











I couldn't have said it
better myself!
OK - so it wasn't that cold...
Was nice to relax though, and not have to worry about getting from A to B in the Beaut. Took advantage of the free bus to the local beach (although decided we wouldn’t catch it back, as it was only a 20 minute walk – we hadn’t got quite that lazy yet!) for our first, but definitely not last, experience with the street stall merchants. Got serenaded by a local musician during dinner, then back to the hotel after a tough day…
Rain = spending lots of time in the games room! 

Key Learnings:
    1. Always carefully check the weather before choosing to stay somewhere for 8 days straight!
