From Hong Kong to Phuket-noisy Alba East Beach

The aircraft's take-off time is at 11: 20 min. We arrive at the airport, at ten in the registry for the Thai Airways check-in, the bulky luggage organized shipments. Here couldn't have to compliment the Hong Kong International Airport, it's clean, bright and in good order, let's just not talk about the quality of the service staff will let the person holding more comfortable. In the baggage, the stewardess lets the camera tripods are consigned, I worry that a tripod will be damaged, shipping asked whether she could bring on the plane. The stewardess immediately call, ask the attendant, get a positive answer, smile and say we only need the plane before you can view the security personnel. Looking back at Beijing Capital International Airport check-in, ticket-registration of the flights is estimated as passengers, to cancel flights into the next. The stewardess sentence sorry, didn't say, bad sound evil and asked: "when did you buy the ticket, flight has been cancelled. "Only the wry, silly, and so on for two hours.

Aircraft take off on time, Miss Thailand air soft voice tells us that the aircraft reached the Phuket Airport is some 30 local time, local temperature of 32 degrees Celsius.

Passengers very seldom, a person can represent three or four position sideways. Expect sunny beach dream will be realized, excited to sleep. Approximately three hours of flight feel too long. Finally the aircraft radio in silence awaited after again, announced that there are 20 minutes we landed at the aircraft. I sat quietly, felt the aircraft began to sink. Suddenly a window edge of passengers a uproar, I looked and looked, hardly cried: aircraft is from the deep blue sea, the sea one form different islands, as are the inputs of the stones, the deep blue sea, and the constant waves stirring up, around the islands surrounding is clear light blue green and calm water back into the deep blue.

Got several aircraft, a smooth landing at the Phuket International Airport.

Clearance, took shipping luggage out of the airport, I saw many hotels with brands to meet people. Because it is the first time in Phuket, I travel tickets and hotel, special requirements to the hotel sent a car to pick up. But all brands are at it again, didn't find me and LG's name, nor did we stay in the hotel's car. Seeing the same plane passengers were picked one by one, I'm a little worried. Fortunately, the LG launched-phone global roaming, in accordance with the travel agency to the number of hotel and car rental number allocated to ask, and finally found a mistake about the hotel. The hotel represents an apology, and make our own taxi, the fare paid by them. Just so, taxi fee is HK $ 550 strains, equivalent to about $ 110, we scheduled shuttle service before, gave $ 140, it is estimated that more money is not returned. The aircraft will encounter bad things, mood could be affected. Also good airport taxi is Toyota's car, the rear seats and spacious, air-conditioned and look at all the way back to the exotic scenery slowly happy again. From the airport to Alba East Beach is about 40 minutes and begin pavement fairly smooth, to turn into highway in the direction of the sea, the terrain is steep, very high starting a long uphill, radian considerable turn, a long steep downslope, Thailand vehicles is the right tires car driving on the right, so every time you meet the two cars, I felt two vehicles seemed to hit. Original boast to rent a car traveling by LG, see this scene is also said to consider.

The car was finally transferred to Alba East Beach Thaveewong Rd, I looked out the window of the car, who is not on the beach, the sea feeling, is a murky green, beach is dark yellow.

Stars on either side of the road are low buildings are mainly buy all kinds of shops, the beach supplies quickly my vision was surrounded these buildings. Really, this is nothing like I imagined Alba East Beach, strike is being diverted to a bazaar, noisy. Car in a foreign table is a two-story building stopped, let us know. I somewhat dumbfounded stare no doors and Windows, the lobby is like a giant shed-like hotel, this is a night 3900 baht boasts five-star Alba East Garden Resort? LG comparison stabilization, the luggage to the foreground, a skinned men enthusiastically welcoming, called the LG's name, sorry, and showed us that travel alone, the computer to the wrong flight, we regret the inconvenience caused. Services to two cups of Miss-iced juice to cool down for us. In this passionate offensive, what is dissatisfied with athought. Waiter took our luggage carrying it takes us to the room, the room number 505, in fact, on the second floor, just took several bends. Waiter opened the door, I was disappointed again, room size can be comparable with Hyatt, but there is no Hyatt clean and tidy. The bathrooms are shower, watching those shower, wash-basin taps are on a certain age, hanging on the wall of the bath towel some old, grey yellow. LG comfort me, that's OK, we'll go tomorrow, don't stress too much. Was he encouraged, we changed the coattails shorts and sandals, go out the door.

Like many friends in travel as mentioned in the local Exchange store many, opposite the hotel there are one or two, on the day's exchange rate is 1 dollar 4.89 baht.

We had seven thousand dollars, the equivalent of thirty million baht, pouch immediately drum up. Then pick a travel agent, ticket and subscription to her hotel. Because of the noise of NBC East Beach, in definite Pipi Island Hotel, we unanimously selected North location remote RESORT PHI PHI NATURAL, this is watched a friend's recommendation, like it's quiet. As a result of the season, the hotel now or 3600 baht a night sea view room (Deluxe Room) has been booked, only the Superior Garden view Room, 2500 baht a night. Travel agency staff showed us pictures, explained that in fact both internal facilities are the same, but a sea, one does not. We did not think too much regret (after the very sorry, sea-view room the absolute value for money must be paid for in advance, let me come back slowly road), aTwo nights. Also booked Railay Island SAND SEA RESORT hotel Deluxe Room for two nights, 3460 baht per night (LG insisted that tourism is going to live well, was I greatly praised). Plus two from Phuket to Pipi Island ticket (400 lines/person), Pipi Island to Railay Island ticket (300 lines/person) and Phuket's ticket Railay returns (400 lines/person), it took a total of 14 million baht. From the travel agency comes out, it is five o'clock in the afternoon already, I had to travel agency asks to Ocian Plaza's line, ready to go to LG buying some shorts and sandals, by the way, to see if there's a beautiful bathing costumes. Ocian Plaza in Soi Bangla road, along the way are houses selling all kinds of clothes and shoes and crafts shop, most of the bars. They are one of the bars independent needs to push the door and is supported by open space wood, wooden bar and stools in the sunset afterglow, issued in response. Also not to empty bar in the evening, was deafening music, only a few hair tattoo not know Ho Kwok man with a beer bottle his feet of frontage. Ocian Plaza is a little like our national small cities in the 1980s by the State Department store, not too big, something I feel is relatively cheap, but not too cheap. Casually stroll around in a circle, to LG bought some t-shirt, basic is about RMB 40. Swimsuit didn't buy, brand goods will be RMB 400 a piece, in Hong Kong to buy that this price, but also shopping environment to much better.

LG and I stroll around in a circle, show considerable impatience, clamoring to photograph.

I look at the table, have fast, looked up and saw the sky sunset, estimated to View point to watch the sunset time, hurry to the beach looked good. Two people run to the beach, just in time to see the sun slowly fell to Emerald Bay. Maybe a little mist, feeling the Sun like a melting candy, stream all the half empty dyed blonde, clouds, island, vessel, became silhouettes. Watching the sunset and a little bit away, the Sun sinking deeper, the last light also recover the SAC, the sky black. Beach of tourists started to disperse, my stomach has also started to call. Also, from noon on board aircraft meal to eat now, we hadn't eaten anything yet. Afternoon at the travel agency, has asked them to eat seafood is cheaper, she said to Soi Bangla road at the left. The road is called Rat-U-Thit200 Pee, God knows why that name. I took the map and LG, decision from another direction Sawat Dirak Rd there go past a look. The road is long, but eating places like not many pedestrians, walked me a bit nervous. Fortunately, close to Soi Bangla road, shops and more tourists, there are indeed several seafood stalls ablaze. I walk past, and LG will soon have waiter figure to meet up with Mandarin said: "what to eat, it sat. "Think of online travel in the mentioned, AZ seafood backstreet Chinese tourists, is here. Want to quickly accelerate the pace of Soi Bangla road, go back to. Now is the way, around 8 pm in the afternoon after the empty bar now presents a very different appearance, multicolored lights flashing, each Chair is full of people, drinking and smoking. In the middle of the circle on the stage, two dress sexy Thailand girl forcefully twist the body. I suddenly felt this scene like in "spirited away", as seen in the daytime in rags, abandoned shed sheds the night even fragrance floating overflowing, brightly lit, God Satan road as is the case here.

Europe and the foreigner may enjoy, but desire from the hubbub of the US, only to hurry away, still looking for the restaurant.

Surrounded by a few bars, family environment can also have the restaurant, seafood, fish on the outside is 70 strains/B, oyster is 40 lines/a, I look at the prices you can sit down, and LG, chose a fish, steamed with a lemon; three oysters fried, barbecue; in addition, a dietong lit winter Yin public soup. Taste of delicious beyond imagination, Oyster, above free Thai sauce, fresh and with a slightly spicy. Steamed fish with lemon "is not like we put lemon slices in fish steamed, but with a large number of spices, including one called lemon grass plant (long like onion, taste and lemon), as well as hot pepper, chopped garlic, ginger, green onions and fish sauce with steamed, so it tastes are also very acid and spicy, with rice. LG per person and I had two bowls of rice to mouth, very fun, and billing, found only 540 lines, amounting to $ 108. LG immediately Hotel signs filmed, say to eat here.

Because the next morning at seven o'clock to Pipi island car to meet us, so I had dinner we set off back to the hotel.

When crossing the street, we haven't really come to Thailand's car is on the left, habitual left if there is a car, there is no car on the left to nature, with the result just footsteps, a motorcycle followed screamed to wipe from me in the past, little knocked me down. I flew into a rage, local people can mess drive! nationals seeking Dafa, the roar of a sentence: "Be careful!" Give us back a white old was playing jiling. Or LG awakening faster: "Oh, our fault, we should first look to the right. "I understand, can't wait to find crack to underground drilling, also to say that the English, did not lose the Chinese face.
