My Stupendous Holiday Day I

My Journey through Pictures
Honestly, I hate writing loads and loads. Especially when I’m not even sure whether half the people read them. So instead. I blog with pictures XD

Adventure Day I
The start to a holiday always begins rough. An “Early morning head start” always seems not to be the easiest task for me to accomplish. What results: Lectures.
My boarding pass =D


At LCCT Airpot all geared up


The view from the plane


The island we thought was Phuket..till we past right by without descending


Dad and Me in the plane =)


Arriving at Phuket airport though, we were greeted by Laguna people.
Next destination: Laguna Holiday Club Phuket Resort on the coast of Bang Tao Beach

Arriving at the lobby of Laguna Holiday Club, well first impressions are everything. And my first impression: Wows.


The Front Lobby


The Pool Cafe - 17th Grill and Bar


Dad relaxing at last


Our Welcome Drinks - don't ask me what it was..I just drank ^^"


Then came the room. Or what I THOUGHT was the room. Turned out to be WAY more than just a room. Kitchenette, dining area, sitting area with sofas which doubles up as another bed, a patio to enjoy bright mornings, together with the master bedroom and a spacious bathroom with a large array of soaps and lotions.


The Sitting Area


Dad taking a photo...which was..


Amazing ain't it.. what touch-ups can do.


The Master Bedroom


The Kitchen Area


The View from the Patio - it's the Golf course btw


Towel designs Thai's actually bother with

Next up: taking the shuttle to the Canal Village and riding the boat across all the hotels admiring the spectacular and breathtaking views and sights.


On the shuttle bus


Houston..we have touchdowned.


Mom shopping...how typical


@ Jim Thomspon trying on their body lotions and fragrances.
Of which..Dad got scolded for taking photos inside..
they're scared someone copies their designs XD

Exploring the many small shops at the Canal Village, including handicrafts (of which was way overpriced- a bandana for rm20 -_-“) many boutiques, including the famous Jim Thompson, and of course the mini-mart, of which I analyzed each and every item there and compared it with KL prices. I know, how cheap could I get right? But SERIOUSLY! They were selling a packet of Oreos for RM5 =_=”! one box of cereal, like Koko Crunch was RM20! They’re extorting our money! And these stupid kwai-lous…I heard them one of them asking another ‘so how much is this packet of biscuits?’ … “Oh..about 4 pounds? Ain’t that cheap!” ..and it was those small cheap made in Thailand ones! How crazy!



At the ferry terminal of the Canal Village


View of Canal Village from Ferry


Laguna Residences


Laguna Residences II (fyi these cost RM3.2m each)


Some other Residence

Following that however, we adjourned to Sheraton Grande Laguna Phuket. They just renovated apparently; after being hit by the tsunami…><” bad for them…but lovely sights for me now =) they even had a 323m long swimming pool! Lovely lovely!


The view from Sheraton Grande- not too sure what it was though.


The shops at Sheraton's Beach- there goes mom off again on another shopping journey..


The Restaurant on Sheraton's Beach - Thai food at not SO crazy prices..but still higher than normal. Nonetheless.. Yummm. Tom Yum.


Me ordering...everyone knows how picky I can be..


Even after ordering..we still read the menu to see what sounds delicious XD


Mom disgusted at how much I'm always staring at the camera..


Me at the sea just before the food arrives. Can't afford to waste any precious time..


Mom attacking the food =D

Last but not least… who could not resist watching the sunset? It’s simply a MUST-DO in Phuket =)


Just before the sun goes down...


My superb feet. Look how they illuminate =D


Right before the sun went down...


A breathtakingly romantic sight.

Next up...trying to find our way back to the front lobby to catch another "tuk-tuk" home.


The view of one of the villas in Sheraton


We walk and walk..yet it's like a maze


One of the ponds in the courtyard we stumbled upon


The Beautiful sights of Puket...well more of the Residences =.=" but still it's pretty!
