The last night in Thailand went really fast. The last day however, very slow.
-a large lobster BBQ’d in garlic butter
-fried calamari
-10 tiger prawns in soy and lemon
-2 crabs cooked in yellow curry
-500g steamed mussels and clams with garlic in white wine broth
-BBQ’d corn, roast potatoes & salad
Amazing meal, we could hardly eat it all!
Gemma got up and went to Phuket early in the morning as it was the only flight available and I got to stay home and nap as my flight wasn’t until 6pm. I got up late and enjoyed the hotel… a nice hot shower, big buffet breaky and lounged by the pool until midday when I had to get up to pack my gear and check out.
I headed out for my final massage.
Next massage was lovely. A 1.5hour long back and neck massage from an older thai woman. Just what I wanted.
I wandered around the markets for a bit and ended up searching for my favourite crepes. I found a stall but there was a line and I couldn’t be bothered waiting so I thought I’d find another walking back to the hotel. Never found one. Prob for the best. So much butter on those things, terrible for my health!
I got to the airport and flew to Phuket to meet Gem for our flight to Perth. She was practically translucent she was so pale. Poor thing had been stuck in a Phuket mall toilet all arvo being sick.
I started to feel sick just before the flight. I noticed something was up coz I wasn’t hungry. I’m always hungry. Hopped on the plane and the dreaded tummy pains started. Unfortunately our flight was packed so we couldn’t even lie down. 10hours, mostly sleeping but I was sick twice. Swapped planes in Perth to transfer to Brizzy and sick again. Got home, sick again. Fast forward a day and I’m sitting on the couch writing this after being sick again. Let’s hope it goes away soon!
