Phuket Thai '12

Sooo, i was going to Phuket Thailand this holiday. from 13th til 18th of July. it was wooooooonderful and amazing! So here's a little strory and a little help for any of you who's plannin to go there.

Day One..
i landed in Phuket Int' Airport at 7pm, and after i finished the immigration thingy, i go to the booth near the exit gate to pick some free thai simcards for me and my family.
then i ran to the exit gate, nyari orang yang udah ready nunggu disana dengan papan tulisan nama gue. and yes, i easily found him.
lalu gue dianter ke Sawasdee Mansion untuk ketemu sama Miss Ladda, orang yang bakal ngurus dan booking segala macem tour yang mau gue lakuin disana.
karena udah terlalu malem, akhirnya gue nginep di Sawasdee Mansion itu. kamarnya bersih, luas, kamar mandi dalem. dan untuk dua kamar, gue cuma kena Rp. 300.000 ajah. for two rooms loh.

Day two..
James Bond Island & Jungcyloon Mall

sesuai kesepakatan, gue ambil James Bond Island Tour. harganya sekitar 1000BHT/person.
gue dijemput di mansion jam 8.30 sama pengelola tour trs dianter ke pelabuhan. naik ke kapal besar semacam cruise.
the first destination and activity is Sea Canoeing at Koh Panak Island (kalo kagak salah ya, correct me later if im wrong), in there, the canoe will take you to the inside of the bat cave. and right after the cave, you'll be amazed by the scenery of a lagoon inside. (sumpah itu keren agak mirip sama Danau Sempu gitu deh---kaya uda pernah aje ke Sempu).
and from Koh Panak Island, we moved to Koh Hong Island atau apalah gitu ya gue pusing ngapalin nama-nama pulau disana. In there, i got 30minutes to explore the place by canoeing again. lengen gue sampe berotot beroooh ndayungin kano!
finished with those canoeing thingy, we jumped in to Khao Tapoo or well known as James Bond Island! i stupidly fell from a huge rock in there, and for thaaaat, i should go to the clinic and lost so many precious time in there because of that stupid accident x_x
oh ya forget to mention that before we went to to James Bond Island, we had buffet lunch on board, and i tottally insane with those yummmmmmy foods, so i ate like a pig. huge pig. susah book ketemu makanan halal disono, jadi sekalinya ada buffet berisi makanan halal dan enak....... ya apa boleh buat selain diembat? wkwkw
mmmm  after that, i got transferred back to the pier and back to hotel.

Day Three
Phi-phi Island & Phuket Town Night Market

the next daaaay, the driver from the tour pick us up again from the hotel. and we went to the pier and got into the speedboat. oh ya, the price for this tour is about 1100 BHT.
first destination is Phi-phi Ley and Maya Bay, where Hollywood's film, which is The Beach was filmed. i incredibly in looove with this place! a white soft sand, greenish blue ocean and beautiful cliffs. jeeez!!! but the temperature is sooo hot. my dad and mum just sat under the tree cause they got terrible travel sickening bcuz of the speedboat :p
and i couldnt help my self but swim!!! in that terrible hot weather.
after spending about 30minutes in there, the speedboat moved to Loh Samah Bay for snorkelling and swimming.
 then we went to the viking cave, we were just sightseeing in there. a lot of swift's nests are built inside (sarang walet).
 after that, we hopped to monkey beach, which has a lot of wild monkey in there. but watch out! theyre not as cute as it seems. i saw someone was bullied by three monkeys bcause he touched one of them. scaaaarry.....
my favorite part is in hereee, teheee.. we were havin lunch at Phi-phi Don Island. buffet agaiiin, so it means eating like a pig again kekekek. Phi-phi Don Island itu tempat tinggal warga sih, many hotels, bars and cafes already built in there. buuuut we only had 30minutes in there, so i wasted it only to buy some souvenirs and snacks.
back to boat and mooooved again, now we were heading to Khai Island. perfect tiny little island with white sand, mountains view, blue ocean and many beautiful umbrellas in there.
P-E-R-F-E-C-T.
i can even saw so many colorful fishes near the beach, and the good thing is, the fishes are really friendly with human. so i decided to buy some bread and feed them :D

soooo after spending such a wonderful time on Phi-phi and the gank Islands, got back to the pier and got transferred to the hotel.
as we got back to hotel, we cleaned our body and took a bath. at 7.30 pm, Miss Ladda and her husband pick us up from the hotel and took us to Phuket town Night Market. hmmm macem pasar malem gitulah. i looove love love being there.
you have no idea how many delicious food that i munched in there. Bangkok's Guava, Fish Ball (macem otak-otak), Fried Octopus, Squid's Satai aaand many mooore.
also i bought soo many cool stuffs from there (and i forgot to bring some of my stuffs too :"().
it was mooooore than cheap.
and i realize that many onlineshop and mangga dua store are selling the same things with the muuuch higher prices. fashion thingy like tee, top, short pants, bikini, jeans and shoes are only about 100-250BHT which is 30.000-90.000 rupiahs. gilaaaak!!!!!

hmmm maybe that's for today, got a bit tired to type this much teheee.
promise i will tell you more later.
sooo, to be continued....
