Phuket at last


I've been in Phuket now for almost two weeks... but it feels like it's been longer! I don't have much time to write (at work now) but suffice it to say it's been more or less paradise at a buck's price. The Kamala King's School has been (in)conveniently canceled for this week, so Chris and I have been working on some themed plans for a weekday camp for the residential kids. We've visited Phi Phi Island twice now, and stayed in Railay Beach, and otherwise hanging around in luxurious pools that belong to luxurious resorts (in which we don't have the money to stay) and sipping away at the swim-up bars, watching every sunset in our usual terraced restaurant with huge bay windows, and visiting nearby (crazy) Patong Beach every once in a while. Kamala is absolutely amazing (see beach above) and just quiet enough that you don't feel like you're back in Europe/America with so many tourists elsewhere (see Phi Phi.. meh). Anywho, back to work now. Just keeping this thing updated. (Quite hard when every moment is precious here!) I'd say I miss home, but who could when the sand is this white, the food this delicious, and everything this cheap!
