Nov 3, 2009 - Rent a Car

So, after exploring the island a little I've concluded we totally made the right decision in staying at the Marriott in Mai Khao. After a short stay at the park we jumped back in the car and went to a beautiful view point of Phuket town and Phuket Bay. ... What was so amazing about the whole morning was that we didn't make one wrong turn or even argue about where we were or where we were going.So, after exploring the island a little I've concluded we totally made the right decision in staying at the Marriott in Mai Khao.

Nov 1, 2009 - Phi Phi Island

It turned out to be a fairly relaxing week at Andaman Beach Resort. Ko Phi Phi is a very small island and is one of the areas that was hit by the December 26, 2006 Tsunami. ... Should I or shouldn’t I? As much as Ko Phi Phi is a touristy island it fits much more into Elaine and Cory’s category 2 people. ...

Sa wat dee! (hello!) We made it to the Marriott in Phuket!!!!! Oh its absolutely fabulous. ... we barely made it to Phuket. ... catching a free shuttle to the bus station so we could then catch a cheap bus to the Rail station (where we were gonna store our luggage and buy our ticket to Phuket) We were the only white people on the bus (which should have been our first clue something was wrong). ... We successfully bought our tickets for the overnight bus to Phuket and were on our way!!! We had no idea what to do or where to go! It wasn't long before we found our first street food vendor where we sat down for a VERY nice breakfast. ... Jason gave me a Tylenol pm and we got on a 12 hr bus to Surat Thani and then another 4 hrs bus to Phuket. ...
