Exploring Phuket, Thailand - Part 2


Part 2 of our Phuket Adventure :) 

Day 2, we started of course by eating breakfast which was provided by the restaurant adjacent to the hotel. It was a continental breakfast but it wasn't buffet. We were served with a choice of juice and you can pick from either coffee or tea - meaning you have two drinks; actually 3 because they also give you water if you request. 



The breakfast included eggs, sausage, bacon strips and vegetables. 


My husband, on the other hand, choose to eat different kinds of bread lol :)) he just wasn't ready for a big breakfast that time because his stomach was upset. 

After eating breakfast, we continued exploring the nearby places of the hotel. 


We saw DQ just within the vicinity of our hotel. 


There was also the launch of Make Your Own Havianas. I bought my Snoopy Havianas from there :) 



This was the side streets that we explored during our walking trip at Phuket. I don't know what exactly the street was but we saw a mountain at the back. 


There was also a Hard Rock Cafe Hotel. Most of the tourists booked here because the hotel has a beach front. 


During our exploration, I got thirsty and we stumbled upon this push cart vendor that was selling all kinds of refreshments. I asked my husband to buy me the Thai Iced Tea as it was delicious. I think it was only 25B (more or less only PHP26). 


After our exploration, we decided to go back to the hotel and rest because the heat of the sun was already burning my skin. We stayed at the hotel until afternoon and waited for the bus that will take us to Phuket FantaSea. 


In the afternoon, we were fetched by the tour van and it took us to Phuket FantaSea. I can't remember exactly how long the travel time was from our hotel to Phuket FantaSea but it wasn't exactly near. This was the tour that we booked when our taxi driver went to the travel agency. 


As what I've mentioned earlier, Phuket FantaSea is one of the main attractions that tourists go to when in Phuket. It usually is in the afternoon until night time. I suggest that you do not bring any electronics or cellphones with you because you have to leave the cameras and any electronic device in the event proper. They forbid any cameras inside the big theatre where the musical is. 



Before the main event, there would be a big banquet inside the place. Well actually, you have to purchase a ticket, you can either go inside and not eat (which is cheaper by hundreds) but you can also opt to purchase the one where you will feast. The whole place is a big buffet of international cuisines. I wasn't able to take a picture in the large banquet  but it was really big. 

At 8:00pm, they open the gates to the big theatre. Sadly, you have to leave your cameras. So I don't have any pictures with me. Anyways, it was a good show. The show was in Thai. We didn't understand the words but we got the gist of the story.
