Thursday January 4th 2007
Sorry I've been off line for a bit. Was hard to get connected at the resort which is where I was donig this before.
Today is possibly the most beautiful day since my arrival here. Not that it's been bad weather, just a bit overcast and hazy.
I've decided to change my plans which were to fly to Bangkok Saturday and plan something else from there. I've canceled my flight and am leaving tomorrow Friday instead by ferry and bus to Phuket to catch up with a friend who has just arrived there last night. Seemed if I headed to Bangkok we'd never connect. And with the current climate in Bangkok maybe waiting a bit might be best. So now, I'm off to Phuket, the tourist capital of Thailand. I can't believe it because I'm not at all a beach person and I've just spent nearly two weeks on an island and now I'm headed for the beaches of Phuket. Ahh well, we'll see what happens. It's not like I had some really hard and fast plans anyway.
Saw Bao at the gym this morning. We talked while he assisted me. What a sweetie. He even offers to give me a lift to Nathon Ferry in the morning since it's his day off. "Do you have much luggage?" Well, yes perhaps too much for his scooter. When I leave I give him a cap, key holder and pin from the Doha Games. Now I wish I'd kept more of these things with me rather than send it all back to Australia. I'd find people all over Asia who might love them.
Time to move on. More news from Phuket.
Bye for now
