I didn't take many photos because I already have a lot from those places, which I'll put up eventually. ^__^
Phi Phi was lovely, albeit crowded for New Years. Yet again, on Phi Phi we end up feeling like we're on Mount Olympus - I don't know why but for some reason it feels like the worlds most beautiful people only hang out there. As usual, the highlight of our weekend was the food - so many good dishes we don't usually get. We stumbled upon an amazing Middle Eastern place and chowed on hummus, falafel, and salad - and in Phuket we found a great Irish place that served pub type food, but for someone in desperation for french fries and gravy it was essentially the best thing I've ever eaten.
We also rented scooters in Phuket and tooled around to some of the other beaches, where we tried and failed to play beach paddle ball.
It's always an adventure in Thailand - this weekend's shenanigans included a lack of any running water for 2 of the 3 nights we stayed in Phuket, so we ended up taking baby wipe showers on NYE. 2014 - or the year I learn to be low maintenance :)
We went to a party on the beach for New Years, and it was crazy busy - but in a good way. People were walking around selling fireworks, so we bought one and set it off. So did a lot of other people near us, which resulted in a stunning fireworks show that also had you slightly concerned for your life. Mai pen rai, this is Thailand.
Here's Tom setting off the firework we bought:
