Krabi-Phuket 2010 – On The Sunny Trail
January 20, 2010 | 6,046 viewsI snorkeled. I got tanned, but not as bad as Bali (surprise, surprise). I ate. I bargained, albeit failed miserably at times. I ate again. I shopped like mad, NOT in shopping centres, nor retail outlets, but at 7-11 (yeah, LURVE their milk, Lay’s potato chips, cheap burgers/hot dogs, etc). I got mighty pleased with the friendly mannerism of the Thai people, though I am no farang. I ate again. I was appalled once touching down in LCCT, for the ultra rude taxi driver was more obnoxious than all the politicians combined. The bad ones, at least.
But I got lethargic from all the travelling. The blistering heat was probably too much for Motormouth to handle. But I persevered, and I came back in one piece. And I got online. And then …. I decided, in a most devilish smirk, to present some of the most teasingly tantalizing shots of the foods that I devoured over in Krabi and Phuket of Thailand, over the last 6 days.
Khao Jam. Khanom Jeen. Massaman. Fuji Japanese Restaurant. Sizzler’s. Swensen’s. Khao Pad. Khao Man Kai.
Or I could be rambling way off my senses. After all, I did not recognize most of the street foods I ate over in Krabi and Phuket. But really, who cares when they’re surrounding you, almost 24/7, and 365?
Okay. Now …. I’ll see where to start off. You like the day by day account, ala Hanoi and Bali travelogues?
OR, I might just post some highlights here and there, like the Bangkok foodhunt, or the more recent Malacca excursion?
Hmmm ….. now for some well-deserved R&R ….. Zzzzzz.
HERE COMES THE RUNDOWN :
PART TWO – Patong Beach in Phuket, RED LIGHT District of Bangla Road, Cheap Thai Seafood
PART FOUR – Krabi Famous Night Market
PART FIVE – Koh Det’s Amazing Breakfast in Ao Nang, Krabi
PART SIX – Phi Phi Islands Day Tour

Please do it like day by day, it gonna be interesting!!!
Btw, I’m having difficulties to see your pictures here… is it because they are big files? Most of the time, it’s very hard tosee the pictures in your blog because it takes a very long time. Like in this post, I can’t see the collage picture at all.
