Know Phuket is in 1994 first went to Thailand travel, Pataya play, tour guide told me that Thailand's most beautiful sea in Phuket, then guide it's not so bad, how to cheat all day wondering your money, also occasionally make tour guide to tell you some role does not know everything.
94 years away from Bangkok airport, pick up a copy of Phuket, then know that 007 island.
Phuket became a dream, in my mind.1999 to marry, to go to Phuket honeymoon, but few travel tours or secretly engaged, we are invited to participate in the CTS, the Hong Kong Phuket Tour Travel Agency informed us tour was less than 8 people, the immigration requirements cannot organize, had to change mission to Bangkok and Pataya, revisit the route 5 years ago.
At that time travel team have been very much like a sinister scam.2000 first went to Phuket, is the gap in company meetings, only in Phuket for a weekend, the Holiday Inn in Patong for 2 days, just go to the Patong area, but was surprised at the improvement of tourist services in Phuket, back has been remembered where Sun and sea.
In 2001, and his wife finally went to a meeting of Phuket, this is the last time I travel with the group, although with the group more and more like once they pay people the adventures of kidnapping extortion, Phuket or I was extremely impressed with, so when a Christmas we sat in the living room of this year's travel plans, my wife and I highly recommend Phuket tours of plan has been nearly 70 's parents.
A family of five for three generations, from 4 years to 70 years of age, do not rely on travel agents to travel abroad, prior arrangements is important, not like before I went to the United States and Europe, primarily think of where to play, with a Lonely Plant will get.
First, determine the date, we have chosen before the Spring Festival, then find Shanghai Airlines and China Eastern Airlines tickets, only to find all the tickets are in the hands of crimping travel agency, Shanghai Airlines and China Eastern Airlines can only be set to alternate reservation, airline told us usually within 5 days before departure will be organic bit empty out, checked PP Island housing condition and found very tense, if not now, then it is likely to have a room you want, if you set a room, there is no availability at that time, then the Charge No Show the hotel will let us very depressing.
Finally we have a Spring Festival in Shanghai, travel to defer to the end of February, due to the booking of unpleasant experience, as well as a sitting before the red eye flights going to Hainan pain experience, we have decided to never and domestic travel.
We have to look into Thailand air, direct dial to price is $ 3500 RMB, from Bangkok to turn red eye flights than the nearly $ 1000 expensive, but daily flights, not like red eye flights can be arranged for 4 days, we finally decided to choose Thailand air, it turns out, for with the elderly and children traveling, do not select the red eye flights is absolutely the right decision.We can find a travel visa, 300 yuan/person, the line is:
February 28, Shanghai-Bangkok-Phuket, Patong
February 29, Phuket-PP, live PP
3/1/08 PP island
March 2, PP to Laguna Phuket, live-
March 3 08 Laguna
March 4, Phuket-Bangkok, Bangkok
March 5, Bangkok-Shanghai
Schedule, pronounce hotel,
The first day of Patong, Patong Merlin Hotel booked, this is the last time I stayed at the Holiday Inn, fancy hotels, there are three huge beautiful babies must like the swimming pool.
By Siam-hotel.com fixed room, $ 93.After two days of PP Island, set by phuket.com PP leisure Package 2 days, selected at the time to bring on the great reputation of the city of PP Natural Resort. Upgrade to a Deluxe room, four adults and one child with breakfast, lunch and PP, for a total of 435,-baht 17000.
Back from PP Island, we decided to live the Laguna, or from Siam-hotel.com's rooms, a superior room, a Deluxe small suites (Studio) with breakfast are $ 169 and $ 159, some cheaper than phuket.com.
Not sure why the Deluxe sea view room with sea view is absolutely not BangTao PP.Bangkok transit, considering that it would inevitably have to buy something, decided to stay at the Siam Plaza, this is previous to Bangkok bright place, unlike Papong so confusing, has four large Shopping Mall, the hotel is where some cheaper WTC, we finally chose the Novotel, 61 dollars with breakfast, which is the only choice for the trip of the international hotel chain brand, perennial business travel experience, let me on the same international hotel chain has no interest.
All preparations have been completed, as a preliminary budget, all about us $ 2000 cash, so bring a $ 2500 in cash, the hotel costs have been paid in advance, others are by credit card.
Contact my insurance agent bought friends overseas travel insurance, spent $/5 256, away from home, just in case.The day before leaving, it started to rain, the weather was cold, I made a telephone call to Pudong airport, parking for the night is $ 50/day, considering that can replace your clothes on the car less luggage, we decided to drive to the airport.
Preparation of everything, the trip is about to begin.

For fear of baby seasick, breakfast not dare to eat more and discovered that the waves are not large, here remind friends with elderly people and children to the PP Island, it is a good choice for the high season, since a calm little seasick.
Ship out port, the sea from green to blue, the final was dark green, we had a family on the deck, watching the waves ever learn. I let the parents in the bow swing a Titanic standards Pose, attracting tourists from the whole deck foreigner's applause, Dad MOM funny embarrassed never listen to me. Had to go to the mercy of my baby.On deck from Norway's got to know a couple, they stayed in Thailand has a month to envy.

Shipping line an hour later, close the PP Ley Island, overlooking the famous Maya Bay, since we plan to come back, there is no fun, and the next boat PP Island Long Sand Beach, we are here to have lunch, snorkeling and then sent to is located on the north end of the island of PP Natural Resort.

A lot of blood flow, quickly find a dive shop wound treatment, this, at least 2 days can't swim.Feet hurt, but honestly sat Beach smoking scenery, after lunch, the service staff greeted us another ferry, we proceed to the PP Natural Resort.
Play coming, baby finally went to sleep on board.White's ferry on only my family, the East coast of the island along the PP slowly, one by one from time to time out along the beach, Woods, hide all resort hotels.
Approximately 20 minutes later, we had a long tail boat to the island on our PP, PP Nature Resort.PP Nature Resort really Nature, we are Deluxe, which is not facing the sea of wooden house, wooden decoration is very simple, honest, than fishermen cottage shengsi, however, here the water is limpid, linger, lying at the edge of the cliff edge of the small swimming pool for rest, and then to a Young Coconut iced, foot injury is not a very serious problem.
Because of a broken foot, we have to give up the diving and Maya Bay, his wife was not too fond of diving, so we in the swimming pool and beach spent 2 days on, of course, the we also is not the most unlucky, we place a France girl accidentally broke in the United Kingdom the calf, but insists that came to the island, she can only put one leg running in the water fun, lianxiangxiyu, can't help but feel that's not too bad.
The baby is happy, two world to understand a lot of dolls, very interesting is that there are two children could be said that France is very good English, asking that they had worked in Beijing for 3 years.PP Nature Resort restaurant choices are limited, the chef's craft has been boasted for chef's dad sneer, however this beach has also three restaurants that'll have to do, anyway, after two days we will be in Laguna good tasty meal.
The third day the morning, I heard a sound out of the boom, ran out, a big coconut fell on the balcony, the earlier years to Maui playing, listening to local friend said, the tourist area of the beach of coconut trees must put the coconut kill to avoid falling off and hit wounding, it seems that in PP island without this rule, then take a walk on the beach, away from the coconut trees.
Look at the clear seawater, it couldn't swim desires, then ran to the front, about a day long tail boat to the opposite of Koh Bamboo, because time is earlier, the beach and only three of us (parents or would like to stay at the pool side rest), the baby alone in the sand in earnest, I taught my wife snorkeling.
