Lazy wake up this morning - still up before 7am. Body clock is still out of wak.
We hired a couple of motor bikes today and hit the road. We rode from Patong beach to Kalim, kamala, bang tao then took the sri soonthon road to phuket town. We ride through the beaches and country side was beautiful. We seemed to pass through little towns that were stricken with poverty and then two mins later in beautiful forests. While in Phuket Town we had a quick look through the Phuket backpackers and booked a few nights for later this week. There were lots of backpackers so I am hoping that we will be able to find some people to get hints off. Ibis isnt exactly the type of place backpackers stay.
Phuket town is like a little bangkok, very busy and slightly stressful. Jono popped a tyre so we found a small place on the side of the road and got his tyre fixed. It was quick an inexpensive. Very lucky. We also managed to find a store to buy a ice block. Sitting by the road and people watching in town was fun, especially when you try to imagine what they are talking about. I am missing not being able to talk to people in english.
After Phuket Town we rode along the wichtsongkram road back to patong. We sat in the aircon for a few mins then went to subway for lunch - again very similar to home. Nothing special.
It was a hot day so we sat by the pool for a few hours drinking cocktails and taking the odd dip... so relaxing!! I will sleep well tonight.
