There's nice photo spot for photo session....

Phuket Old Street... Soi Rommanee and History of On On Hotel.....










An hour of shopping at Phuket Premium outlet..... so many things to grab... but we're here on our last day.... time and cash is limited..... so probably coming back again next month.... being here is like going to JPO.... the layout is very similar....






Sempat la jugak beli..... baju and kasut untuk pakai masa balik



a pair from Converse




Shirts from Levi's.....

then...pecut laju-laju ke Patong Beach untuk check out from Nicky's Handlebar...a hotel with a Harley Davidson decoration concept...












Beach photo again.... we're both a beach person..... beach..beach..beach... tak pernah jemu tengok keindahan ciptaan yang maha esa..... laut terbentang luas , awan biru.... just love it














and our last lunch in Phuket.... though we had this everyday.... twice a day.... or three times a day.... we never get bored..... Sticky rice with fried chicken







and finally the famous pancake.... with chocolate and banana...






and off we go on the airport shuttle bus.... just the two of us.... no other passenger except us....

the end of Phuket Trip


I have a continuation on our Chiang Mai trip.... some photos taken from enche hubby's phone.... which I must share with you guys....








Two things about the above photos...

- We met this Australian guy that can speak bahasa and Indon language....we shared interest that Bali is our favourite destination.... and he felt so happy that he finally can speak bahasa with us... though he commented that I can speak English well.... hahahhahah

- The mango juice we had is super yummy and cheap in Chiang Mai... THB30 ... we even can afford to pay for our friend's drink... same drink cost at least THB60-THB120 in Phuket..... we were rewarded recently on our drink purchase... a cendol for two of us were paid by a couple we shared the table with...that's about life... being kind to others will be paid in kind to... just a matter of time


Enche hubby's cooking experience...

Though I told you guys earlier that enche hubby didn't join for the cooking class... but he get himself very much involved apart from being supportive to me......
