Saturday
Slide show time! That's right,
I have a jillion damn pictures that I am just COMPELLED to show
you, despite the fact that Diaryland is not what we might call
lightening fast with the image serving.
(Check me all slagging my practically-free
web host. Am enormous whiny bitch.)
This page may take fourteen
hours to load, or it might not. It is a mystery! To me!
If viewing other people's vacation
photos isn't your cup of tea, and really, who can blame you,
may I recommend instead the Reflectoporn gallery.

Our hotel in Patong;
you step from the lobby right outside. I kept wincing as we walked
over the threshold, expecting to whack into the glass that wasn't
there.
Ze hotel pool.
Looking back towards
the hotel from the beach. Not pictured: 4000 beach vendors offering
garish sarongs. Yes, I bought one. What?
One of the many temples
outside of businesses and homes.
JB sipping a tasty
beverage at the hotel bar. Many, many tasty beverages were consumed
on this trip.
A seafood restaurant
on Patong Beach Road.
Do you SEE the size
of those lobsters? I totally ate two.
Here is Phuket's infamous
Bang-la road, home to approximately fifty thousand bars.
I highly recommend
this bar for its proximity to...
...the fabulous ladyboy
bar, Moulin Rose.
It's kind of sad when
a guy looks better in a dress than you would. Like, a LOT better.
Other folks playing
the Name That Gender game.
Patong! So crazy!
And now we have the
much more sedate Kata Beach.
The view from our hotel
balcony.
Check out the demure
twin beds in our room. You can shove them together, but someone
always gets screwed by the gap.
Another pool at the
hotel, this was my favorite.
Well, except for this
one. Because swim up bar = pure genius.
Orchids, orchids, everywhere
in Thailand with the orchids. So pretty!
And the bougainvillea,
which I am positive I just spelled wrong.
Chefs laboring to produce
wonderful seafood that we will gulp like starved pelicans.
We sat at a 'cabaret'
show at the hotel that culminated in a fireworks display about
three damn feet above our heads. I picked pieces of carboard
mortar crap out of my hair for the next hour.
Cloth lantern, purty.
And it was all yelloowwww....here we are with yet another tasty
beverage. I'm not sure why I appear to have an enormous overbite.
Standing on a beach.
Staring at the sky. Or something.
Sunset shot the first.
Sunset shot the second.
Downtown Bangkok, taken
from our hotel room on our last day in Thailand.
Dinner at the aptly-named
Vertigo.

And finally...I give
to you....
Dude, I don't know.
We saw this in Patong. I'm guessing you maybe want to take a
pass on visiting this medical establishment.
