nor : ERM! i think i be the one that is going to lug her ard!!!! so sticky koala!!! huahuahua but dun think i will get it...coz keeping my trips short distanced until she is more independent... i think by then dun need to carry her ard.. I HOPE!!!

 

[yolk_sac]

irene: haha, I have been to Phuket about 20 times. No kidding. Could be more actually. HB and I go soooo often. Ems has been three times - twice in my tummy, once when she was two months old. We love Phuket. In recent times, we stay at the Laguna resorts - can take your pic from kiddy friendly one like Laguna Beach Resort to the more upmarket ones like Sheraton Grande or Banyan Tree. If you prefer Surin beach, check out TwinPalms Resort. If you don't mind going further afield to Khao Lak (just outside Phuket), The Sarojin is a gorgeous boutique hotel - but no shops etc around - just the resort. So probably not advisable since it's your first time in Phuket and you prob want to see the sights. Another highly popular one is the JW Marriot, but I haven't stayed there so cannot comment. Have fun!!

 

[yolk_sac]

Erm Aug may still be a bit in the rainy season actually. But it's ok lah. We don't mind going in the rainy season - just mooch around the hotel room watching DVDs, reading books - all this was pre-Ems of cos!

 

[yolk_sac]

Nor: I may not bring the stroller

See how lah. It's a bit bright for me! But at least I can always spot Ems in a crowd, hah.

 

[irenechoi]

yolk : i booked at tis resort..they serve room service by boat!! HOW COOL is that hehehe but not sure how's the service etc..

http://www.phuket.com/accesspool/index.htm

at karon beach... didnt really want to go patong area... i scare too crowded... and we arnt planning to go hectic on this trip.. OUR FIRST trip with the koala... so going easy this time...

not sure isit near phuket town... i need to go and get her food supplies and cook in the room!!

YES YES>.. Daddy isnt a fan of frozen porridge etc... so this mummy has to crack her head on What to bring to COOK during my Vacation!

yeah i heard JW marriot is nice...

any places i should visit??? or eat at which restaurant???

u must be mad to go phuket 20 times!!! huahuahauha

 

[irenechoi]

oh IS phuket rainy season in aug????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[yolk_sac]

irene: wow, very nice! i'm not sure where karon beach is, but i must say that you mustn't expect to be able to buy supplies from phuket town, it's a bit sleepy, mainly good for basic groceries and souvenirs

eating - my hb LOVEs the Lotus Restaurant on Bang Tao Bay (near the Laguna resorts), there is a nice restaurant at TwinPalms hotel on Surin(modern, fusion Thai) but can't recall name sorry.

 

[irenechoi]

karon is somwehere near patong actually... but more secluded compare to patong... OH my... i hope they have minced meat or vege...in phuket Town!! anybody know about this??

thanks for the food recommendation.. hehe will take note..

any night markets around???

 

[yolk_sac]

irene: i'm sure they have minced meat in phuket town lah, but really, as the flight is so short (1.5 hrs), can i suggest that you just pack the raw food you want to bring in a Fridge to Go and dump it into your hotel fridge when you get there?

 

[bedebe]

irene...wow...holiday! nice nice! you know what was my first thot when i read abt room service by boat? eh...that you prob have to order whatever you want way way in advance or order everything all together...what if it's a slow boat and you're down to the last sheet of paper

anyway...just a suggestion...why not check with the resort if they are able to supply you with raw food if you decide not to bring some from SG (if it's allowed) some accommodating hotels may even let you cook in their kitchen (i read from somewhere...think it's rick stevens)

yolk...how was tokyo? hubs says no more japan for us for the time-being

 

[yolk_sac]

Bedebe: It was great fun! We enjoyed ourselves and Ems turned out to be an okay traveller - seemed to adapt well to the change in routine, without too much fuss. We were just so glad she was able to take her naps while we were running around as we'd never tried to do that in Singapore. You off to Europe next right? No need to do tokyo again lah

Tinsel
Those pictures are LOVELY!!!! Aiyoooo.... I should have gotten a professional to take pics for me on that day too. Heeee

Yolk
Your trip to Tokyo looks so fun! Had been persuading my hubby to go Japan, but he said, he don't speak their language, so no point. So for 2 times this yr, we went to Taiwan exclusively. Haiz.......

Irene
MSN you the transaction liao hor. Heee.... at least I'm not owing you money liao. By the way, I was told this sat is my grandma's death anniversary. Thus, I might be late hor. Don't angry hor......

Nor
Your gals are always so smiley one hor. If I show you my boys photo, it's the direct opposite of yours lor.....

 

[star_eliz]

Irene
I also give u a kiss! Haaa...


Angeline
I also regret not getting a professional to take pics..
Alot turned out so blur!! Sigh.. *super upset*

Japan is a must must place to go!!
I'm so trying to push for a trip this yr or early next.

 

[yolk_sac]

Tinsel: The pics are great!

Angeline: Aiyoh, try to persuade him again! It was really lots of fun and we don't speak any Jappo, but still survived just fine. Nowadays lots of the signs are in English and some restaurants have English menus.

 

[ultra_mao]

Hi mummies,
