Day 3 - Phuket (22 Feb 2011)

On the 3rd day, we decided to book 2 packages, 1 is for island trip and 1 for the Fantasea show.
We booked Khai island because I think it is more suitable for younger kids. I was right as there is a small area whereby you can stand in the water and feed the fishes instead of snokelling. Luckily I bring a whole loaf of white bread which came in useful. (actually it was bought as my kids love bread too!) end up they share it with the fishes! haaaa




Our tour guide


First island. we will be going to 2 neighbouring islands too. We also pass by phi phi island too.




Shall we play the beautiful sand?

Changed to swim wear



...and bikini wear! Bought this earlier at wkend mkt


Look at all those fishes. The kids had a good time feeding them and touching them! I didn't took pics of them feeding as I am busy holding onto their hands. as there are rocks below and scare not stable as we walked though...



See Gem so happy...








We went to another island to snokel. and then the last island for more sand and lunch!

lunch was nice sandwiches and free flow of tropical fruits like watermelon and pineapples. very sweet and Gem love the watermelon since then. of cos, there is free flow of drinks too.


We head back after the half day trip and went back hotel to shower. Then went shopping a little and had food at Fuji. Very nice and fresh. In fact we ate it for 3 days! It is alos value for $. wun get this at this price in SG!











After dinner, we headed back to hotel to wait for the bus to Fanta Sea. was disappointed that the guy was late to pick us. Nevertheless we reached there and quickly exchanged our passes.



We booked the show as well for the dinner as it looks more worth it. As we also have kids, it make more sense to have our dinner there too. As you know, kids do take a long time to eat their food so we simply cannot wait for them to finish. The bus pick us at abt 7 so it better to have our meal there. Furthermore it is buffet style so we can take our time. Anyway the bus was late and we ended eating faster so that we can look around the big park before the show start.



















Real tiger!! scary!








Had our buffet dinner here (below)









We were waiting to go into this hall for the show. It is very grand.


The show cannot be viewed. In fact our phones and camera had to be desposited into their safe boxes, to be claimed after the show. It was quite orderly despite the big masses going in and out later. But after the show, we have no time to look around as the bus driver is already here. in fact we are late... was a bit disappointed y he came late and pick us early. the place is so big so he should have given us more time.

Our goods for the day... Yummy crackers not found here in SG, or is there? I like their flavours very much as it more spicier.



Their maggi/instant noodles.
