Phuket in July (finally!!!)

[orangelemon]

December is peak season here and room rates will increase from October onwards but depending on your accomodatin requirements most dive centres will offer you a package deal (at least we do) for your hotel / diving / transfers so you can give them your requirements and see what they can offer. I have recently certified two Singaporean Advanced Divers that even here in Low season were thrilled and impressed with the training / diving conditions and cost of diving here in Phuket.

Good Luck

Well, here I am in Phuket. Touchdown this morning about 8.25am. Staying at a guesthouse along Rat U Thit Road, a few minutes walk away from Batfish's dive shop. Still feeling slightly lagged from the flight. Hopefully, I will feel well enough to run around Patong tomorrow. Guess tonight I will just stay in my room to catch the World Cup final. Got a nice 21" TV with cable.

The guesthouse is small and cosy. Nice clean room and shower. Hot shower, nice clean bed, A/C & fan, digital safe, fridge and a balcony. 600baht per day.

Weather for Patong - rain and shine. The sun is strong enough for me to suffer a little sunburn on my shoulders, just from walking around Patong looking for my guesthouse. Heh! That will probably teach me to slap on some sunblock if I were to walk around Patong in the day.

I'm cheering for France. Let's see who will win tonight.

Hi Traminer, thanks for asking.
I am currently spending the first few days relaxing and enjoying the break. It's just nice to do absolutely nothing. Well, maybe except eat, sleep, shop and etc... :tongue:
It's rather rainy here today however, been drizzling on and off since early morning.
