Hi all The three hour local bus was fine and very cheap. But there was trouble. I'd woken up in agony - issues with my wisdom tooth. We arrived in Phuket and I took an instant dislike to the place. This was partly due to Patpong being anywhere as near as nice as Kota that I had visit in Phuket before. The weather was roasting and we walked around for ages with all my gear on looking for accommodation. My day bag braking (mental note - Karrimor gear is rubbish) but I disliked Patpong mainly because I was in severe pain. To cut a long story, within four hour a had booked a ticket to go to Malaysia and decided to give Kho Phi Phi a miss. Been there before and the weather isn't supposed to be that good this time of year. Pain killers and to bed.... Bye for now Miffy x x x
