This evening Steve & Sarah, Raymond and I decided that we would head over to the other side of Phuket Island to a town called Patong which had a lot more bars and nightlife as it was fairly quiet in Phuket Town where I was staying. Although Raymond and I hadn't been over there yet, Steve & Sarah had, and they warned us to brace ourselves as it was nothing like the town we were staying in.We headed out to the bar next to the hostel first for our nightly free ...

We basically came up here as we had been told that the pool table was free to play where at the bar next to the hotel the pool table cost 20 Baht per game.When we got here the place was quite empty, just like the rest of the town seems to be, but at least we managed to get on...

The night bus was an absolute nightmare from Bangkok and I didn't manage to get much sleep at all on the bus.
