Courtney and I visited the Phuket Butterfly and Insect Gardens. It's a short tuk-tuk ride outside of Phuket Town and is a nice break away from the usual tourist attraction in Phuket. It has lots of information in Thai and English and I recommend it as a little half-day trip.
Our tuk-tuk driver did however take us to a gem shop. We found it hilarious as the place was full of tourist like us, not entirely sure what they were doing there, surrounded by pearls, rubies and emeralds, being told that, just for today, they're on sale.
Ok I'm going to just go for this comment. I know you are using this blog as a showcase for your photos...but I demand life updates. Court. just got there, what r u guys doing? how is her job hunt going? how is daily life in thailand? do you have a job lined up? how was CELTA? Was is hard/easy/informative? What is the food like? Do you think Puket is a tourist trap? How does Thailand compare to Korea (food/people/landscape/buildings)?
ReplyDeleteThese are the type of questions I need answering!! Those pics were amazing by the way!
Much luv
