Approaching Phuket

After having our breakfast in New Season Hotel,we depart and move on to our next destination,Phuket.On half way,the tour guide aka BOmbing God joined us.He is in charge in guiding us throughout the tour on phuket.We stopped by some coffee shop to have a break.This is where the fun begin.This tour guide look exactly like my uncle(my mom's brother).From the hairstyle-face-body,they look exactly the same,it's like a copy.I was so shock to see him walking around talking to the coffee shop lady.I do noticed,all lady boss in a particular shop,ranging from massage parlour to coffee shop will normally heavy make up themselves.From what i heard,most of them have a background boss supporting them,LOL This is the tour guide i was talking bout,damn scary to have an unknown clone uncle.


Then we continue our journey.We have our lunch in a ship restaurant.




This is actually a restaurant=.=They said this restaurant is sinking year by year,wonder when will it be history.








We continue our journey afterwards.Since it's still very early,the tour guide came up with a 'brilliant idea'.He wanted to bring us to see some unique beach.But the problem is,he didn't know the route.We got lost all the time until one of the troop member asked him to go back collect tapper,p.s the tour guide used to be a rubber tapper before changing his job.Everyone heard that because each car were communicating using talkie walkie.The tour guide didn't hear that because he was busy coming down the car and asked for direction=.=""After hours of exploring,we finally arrived.BUT BUT BUT,that place turned out to be a holy crap place.The entrance fee to enter the beach is 400bath,which is equal to 43ringgit,and all we can see is some unique stone and sand.At the end,no people actually went into the beach.Some of them are busy finding toilet though...


I have no idea what so special about this beach site??






The troop leader decided to continue with the normal routine and asked the tour guide to bring us to phuket straight.A 4 hours ride became 7 hours ride all because of the stupid beach suggestion.SWT


My parents are at the centre.The left side is the troop leader while the one at the right is her wife,which is craziest shopholic i ever seen in my life.She buy clothes no need try,just sweep all and buy all.


The hotel we checked in is known as Royal Paradise Hotel,sounds cool??It's actually a complex full of gay bar and gay maassage.During night time after having our dinner at the hotel,i walked out alone to explore the town,I found it really chill when every ladyboy or gay fellows throughout the road will start calling....HanSom Boy~~~you wan massage??hello,welcome~~sawadika~mssage massage??~~It was thrilling experience just to walk out of the complex




This is the scene around Patong,there is tons of shop selling fake stuff but overall things sold here and more expensive due to the fact it's tourism paradise for europeans.




well,as you can see,this is the one of the massage parlour offering pure thai massage.Thai pure massage is really nice in thailand,not just phuket Patong.Compared to malaysia who offer lousy service and expensive rate,thai maassage here are really relaxing.Please giv it a try.The price in Phuket is still quite fair,250-300 bath for 1-2 hours.It's about the same in hatyai due to fierce competition.


LOL,this is the famous ladyboy/kathoey.Taking a photo with them cost me 100bath=.=but then it's a really good experience.I have to run away after taking photo with 2 of them because once i gave some tips to them,the rest all approaching you and asked you to take photo with them.According to the local,Kathoey normally have a lifespan of 40 years.They have to undergo plastic surgery to have silicon breast,and injected themselves with estrogen in order to stay pretty.As a result,their testosterone level drop year by year until the moment their penis become hard,which in terms means unable to function anymore.Some of them suffer mental problem and get rejected by their family.Asking why they still do it??Most of them are from the north of thailand,with extremely poor rice farmer family background.They are normally the sole finiancial provider for the family.Instead of farming and earn 500 bath per month,they can earn around 5k-6k bath per month and sometimes more.These are the main reason why they are willing to make such sacrifices.All for the love of their family...
