The first mention of Phuket, is July 2008, one day, in an activity that involves the meandering, just rain.
A road vehicle, the wind blows in the face you wanted a cool breeze, cloud Oi briskly in half mountain seems to go there to stay, slightly flickering leaves only trying to keep the rain, do not want it slip away, the air with the fragrance of the Earth, reminding at the just concluded baptism, appeared to be in a whisper, forget it. Nature is a tolerant and open-minded friends, happy, or trouble, always silently accepted to, support, just go into it, love it, it will return the most homely warmth."Really can go to Phuket?" was initially that the subject a bit troubled themselves.
Thought, study abroad is a very difficult thing, at least ever will soon. When I ask this question, my friends will say, "no problem", ask for more, he said, "unless you don't go, otherwise it will take place." This makes me very practical, since then, began actively preparing, until October.Plan is 6 people travel, travel anterior happened a little twists, a friend was sick in hospital, the original travel date had to be postponed.
The period of time, some worry that good at last everyone overcome difficulties and smooth.Start the day is November 6, from the first mention is 4 months.

McDonnell Douglas aircraft is 90, there is no way docked on the veranda, sitting among the cars, the strange thing is the number of seats on the airplane, a row of only five, on the right side of the left two, three, don't know how to maintain balance. Stewardess is Northeast people, children are very high. When the plane even more strange that the rear of the aircraft, there is a small string, you can directly go down.This is your first time here in Chengdu, other friends are mostly a couple of times, and looks very familiar.
Shuangliu airport to bigger than xianyang airport, very near from the urban areas, 18 km. Take the airport bus to the city ticket office for civil aviation, which is the opposite of Jinjiang hotel, where off-scheduled "party" in the water is in fact very close to the hotel. But unable to find that a taxi is only 600 meters. 3 bedrooms are on the 7th floor are the rooms with large balconies, standing on the balcony, you can see the night of the "miles". Our spirit is good, a bit stuck to the "play all", a bustling night market. The first attempt to eat tutou, a bit complicated, requiring patience and decomposition, slowly tastes. It is interesting to note that just a seat, a friend asked us, "who's the best English?" originally, we 6 man is the first overseas, although there are two graduate students, and 2 exams such as IELTS, TOEFL too, but somewhat uncertain. Because the second afternoon of aircraft, from the "play all" came out, everyone whims, went to the "Jing". The "Jing" is a coffee bar, all of the street is the Qing building, just go to too late, the shop is going to shut up shop, feel quite good, there is time to time in the evening of hilarious tour again.During the break, it was half past two in the morning.
Second day: 7 November, Friday, Chengdu-Bangkok-Phuket
Good morning, Sun, sat in the balcony of cool, Chair, reading, not long, wet hair dry naturally.
Lunch is not far away from the hotel's kitchens to eat, time for a little bit nervous.
We improve efficiency, soldiers, comprising two road all the way to direct to the airport for passports, travel and other formalities, all the way back to the hotel check-out. This trip abroad, is a bold breakthroughs, not through travel agents with the group outing, but through ctrip (www.ctrip.com) booked hotels and air tickets and some additional services that are free.Departure formalities than imagined simple many, from quarantine to check in procedures, to security, not more than half an hour.
The international flights Terminal were very small, very quiet, there are some duty free shop.We take a Thai company TG619, 15: 05-off, the flight time is 3 hours 10 minutes.
For international flights, not many people can feel free to choose the location sit, lie down. Through a porthole, spotless sky clouds floating in light emission, everyone's mood and brilliant sunshine. Thai Air hostesses dressed in traditional costume, becassocked to welcome, smile and return service, many feel warm. Small snacks on board the aircraft, was shelled peanut, taste good. Shortly after take-off, a hostess will give everyone out the immigration of enrolment, really do not know the word, in Central members intelligence, are filled out properly. Immigration programs is also very simple, no questions, take a picture standing up, like the OK.Thailand time earlier than Beijing time for an hour, local time 17: 15 arrival at Bangkok cable million that Cape airport.
We have five or six hours. There are two airports in Bangkok, this is the new airport, is Thailand's largest airport, there are 4 levels.From Bangkok to Phuket flights is TG225, 22: 40, many people are full, Phuket is a tourist destination.
Landing, is 24: 00. Airport exit to provide free Phuket maps, available in English, Russian, French, until a different version of the cannibals would get wrong. We have a closer look at that time, took a heap, the hotel is found in take the wrong. From the airport, the airport of ctrip early with brands. Thailand's traffic is keep to the left, maybe too late, the drivers themselves along the highway, turn right, drive very fast, we are not accustomed, sat dumbfounded. Roadside housing seems low, a bit worn, it was a long time before we see the reservation of the Hilton Hotel (Hilton Phuket Arcadia Resort & amp; Spa)。 The hotel's garden is very big, at night, quiet, very good.Reservation is Andaman wing standard sea view room, 3 bedrooms are 415, 417, 422.
It is interesting to note that bed with purple petals put a cute "heart" of the pattern, some accidents. Open the floor, in front of a pool of blue water, turned out to be two large a small circular swimming pool connected to. Standing on the balcony, you can hear the distant wave after wave of sound. Ultimatum would like to see the sea, linger, a short stay, he went to see the sea. In fact, the sea is very near from the hotel, but a hundred metres, cross the road, the beach, the sea. The sand is fine is very soft, a foot down, most of which are not on the cover. Watch friends excited to jump into the sea, make slight flooding over feet, over his legs, and very comfortable. Night, can not see the sea, only silently listen, looked at from a distance, tell yourself that this is the Andaman Sea and beautiful, this is the desire of Phuket.Third day: November 8, Saturday, Phuket, Karen Beach
Today is a day of relaxation, free holiday, no travel arrangements.
Hilton Hotel is located in Karen Beach, although there is no own beach, but a more quiet place.
Hotel breakfast was very good, after breakfast, we went straight to the sea. In the early morning of seawater is subtle and not so blue, but is clear, the temperature of the appropriate temperature. We hired four chaise, all day, only 400 baht. Friends get ready early, take and eat, drink, use of, in particular bought 50 times more sunscreen. On the beach, a walk in leisure, in a fast run, it was simply a direct course, everyone in their own way while you relax, enjoying the sunshine so wonderful, green, Silver Beach.Cannot swim, walk along the beach.
Think about two days ago was busy working piezoelectric of going down, think of a few months to prepare lessons, think of the first scenes of the sea, think about friends, family, think of yourself. In fact, there are a lot of things, such as a minor, seriously, when heavy, underestimated the light. As long as the heart with love, stick to the principle of life, cling to things of the present, optimistic and positive manner to face, you'll be happy. Watching the distant hills, feels very close, I didn't expect it to go for a long time. That period of time, we are swimming, sunbathing or playing with sand-buried people "" of the game. Tired of lying on the beach chairs, sleep a little lie down, turn on a few pages of the book, this is the expected life of the resort.Not a cloud gradually thick, it began to rain, we clean up the return to the hotel.
Waiting for lunch, in the rain on a fierce "water basketball." In pairs, or splashing water blocking attacks, or occasionally jump shots, not see whether walks, say no good result can win or lose, but play, look at the people, are kept in a hearty laugh.After lunch, visit to the hotel.
The hotel occupies a very large, only two or three buildings, but several modeling chic swimming pool, a large green space, with flowing, meander, deep, is five-star hotel, many details to consider very thoughtful. The rain to go fast, fast, not much, it just stopped. We go to the previous night to see the swimming pool. There is a small platform, a person with a head, the other person were brave to try, they display their own technology. The classic thing happened, swimming pool attendant client to some fruit, thought is paid, we will all say "No, thanks" to leave the waiter, a friend asked a classic "Howmuch?" To allow everyone to taste the fresh fruit, because the "free", It is more useful thing!Dinner is at the southern tip of Phuket Island, canopy mount Ness restaurant (Phromthep Cape Restaurant), is said to be the best place to watch the sunset, on Phuket free line PASS is strongly recommended.
We pack a minibus, like Toyota, from hotels to the restaurant, from restaurants and shopping malls, 4 hours, before 2000 baht. The restaurant is open to the garden, there is green grass covered, is full of flowers flowers. Dining table in place between the green trees in safflower, like decorations, may unintentionally. We were the first guests, mostly weather, meals are not very many. Point meal had little trouble, not knowing what is the point, do not know what is on the cuisine, in a disc of 1600 baht seafood dinner, crab, lobster, squid. At first the day or bright, but not for long, bright day gradually Dim down, perhaps only rain's sake, don't see the sunset Western thought. But commodities at Phuket brewery, eating seafood, watching the sea, feel good, because, for us, it is not seen, but friends of laughter.After dinner, we went to the town's most bustling shopping centres (Central Festival), something quite full, slightly shopping.
Fourth day: 9 November, Sunday, the island Phuket-PP
By boat from Phuket today to PP island because tickets are 8: 30 am, about to pick up at 7 o'clock, so got 6 points, the rush to breakfast at the hotel's welcoming lobby (Welcome Meeting), etc.
Welcome to the Hall is designed with a girl, and wait for people to confirm the room number, and to confirm the list of people, very thoughtful and meticulous service.From the hotel to the pier, around 30 minutes.
Just get off drivers master give each piece of luggage on yellow green and white slip, and give everyone made a circle icon, attached to the chest. Then led, through Terminal, and box office personnel to confirm the list, and then get on the boat. On board, someone guide on luggage. The cruise ship is a normal three-storey, first floor is open, the second layer is air conditioned, the third tier as if selling commodities. Go to PP a lot of people, not for a moment, sitting with。 On-time departure, not long before the sight of Phuket, occasionally see standing rock in the sea, it is a masterpiece of crustal movement, more time, only the vast expanse of the sea and a big motor noise. At first, did not pay attention to the icon of words later, found each chest are stuck to the icon, a pattern is different for different, content, then do not think it's important.From Phuket to PP, about 2 hours trip.
The cabin was very cold, more people are on deck in the Sun or sat in the bows. They do not know, sitting in the stern, allowing the wind and waves splashing, nothing to think about, sat, or watch the roll of the ocean, forget time.Cruise the PP, will introduce a stay, attractions, from near, can see the cave to square up the ladder, maybe the locals in picking the nests! can see Pier, Stern gathered more and more people are thinking that docks to the pier you can disembark, not expected, but it is another ship coming up next.
Stick with the same icon, the ride will be arranged in the same boat, suddenly aware that water traffic with land transport, as can be. Then, cruise ships, forward constantly have vessels near, and picked the tourists, who gradually. We are not a final disembarkation of guests, and so we are on the transfer of the ship, but found little peer 2 individuals. The original problem in their icon is jacket cover, the ship's staff do not have to wake them up. Had to lament Phuket tourist developed, through a different label, hotels, marinas, boat to teamwork between, virtually eliminating the need to communicate with visitors, clear know each person's destination, you need to take and what kind of boat, simple and effective. One last ride, is the long tail boat to the hotel (Long Tail Boat), which is up on the shore. After three hours of stroke, and finally to our destination PP Island Resort (Holiday Inn Resort Phi Phi Island).Holiday hotel is warm, just like a smiling face, Miss guided, relax, check-in.
Registration also will need to fill in some information on the entry form. We scheduled a sea view room, 400, 401, 402, three separate cabins, interestingly, 400 and 401 only a wall, a door, more like a family room.Lunch was eaten in the hotel, open-air restaurant, a few steps from the beach, nearby parking lots of long-tail boat, taste good, relatively expensive price.
PP island of transport only, fresh water scarcity, the hotel is only 2 bottles a day of pure water supply, no TV. This beach is very quiet, very few tourists, sporadic and on the beach with chaise, flourishing tree hanging hammock. Here are like the legend of Xanadu, no rapturous TV, no noisy phone, no heavy traffic, just take a walk on the beach, take a look at books, Sun, do the most simple and most joy.After a short break, afternoon activities is boating, boat-three double pulp.
Small game, the Division of very far away from the shore there are several hundred meters, the feeling of some torrent. Tired, put in the hands of the pulp, let the ship free to swing with the waves. At first, a little frightened, later on, it will be a relaxing leisurely atmosphere.Dinner in the hotel next to the small fishing village in eating, crab, shrimp, fish, delicious fried noodles, fried rice, original, more simple words is the most direct communication, one of the "more", all have delicious, we will say so, immediately understand.
One eats is very full, 1722, we call Bhat, too cheap, tomorrow again, continue to eat the sea!After a meal is billiard and table tennis, hotel gratis, competition is very fierce.
A friend brought good tea, invited to join guanyue, tea and a chat. Maybe the day in the busy, maybe the few opportunities with peers, perhaps feeling too good scenery is so beautiful, PP island journey has just begun, we began talking about the next time you travel, Viet Nam, Nepal or India? original, and acquaintance acquainted friends go on holiday, really good.During the break, and 0200.
Fifth day: 10 November, Monday, PP island
6 point Beach in the morning, the wind is light, long flat, three men, very quiet.
Today is a free day, plan to rent a long tail boat out to sea.
Yesterday afternoon we began to inquire about chartering price, next to the hotel there is a Charter Agency, and the other two or three ships respectively on price, last, and the boatman yesterday met immediately. And boatmen, about 7 hours, snorkeling, fishing, swimming, going to the four different places, a total of 2200 baht.10: 30 departure from the hotel.
The fisherman is not high, dark, thin, the feeling is also kind and capable person. Ship heading along the coastline of the island, straight ahead when discovered, PP island does not have imagined the sand Silver Beach, stands the steep cliffs. Very fast speed, not for a while, you see the hotel.Bypass the most distal, got to the first place, the ship shore over 1000 metres stopped, not far away there is a very a camel rock.
The sky begins to rain, water stirred little small flowers. The sea very pure, no fine look, you can see colorful fish swim to throw a little swim, bread crumbs, there are crowds of fish around. Watch the fish wind rush to consume, bread crumbs, if hand disappeared of slow, small fish might bite on a small orifice. The boatmen told us that there can be snorkeling. The girls are ready to greet the young men do not have to go. Rain gradually, irrepressible enthusiasm of everyone. Hardy, swim technique and good, will go very far, or in a cave tours into tours; timid, around the ship, or let the boatman in hand with snorkeling. The fisherman is very careful, very responsible, after several moments, the number of inventoried what he see 6 individuals have in his sight. Snorkeling in the rain, don't have fun.p>The second place is the tongsai Terminal, is the most narrow PP Island, is the most popular on the island.
Rain increasing, we all drenched. Very simple, just after lunch along the roadside shops around. Here are some professional diving company, suitable for backpackers accommodation in the hotel, the restaurant looks good, and some travel articles shops. Let me surprise is that there is a small post office, accurate that cannot be described as the post office, because there is only one counter for you to write and write, next to swing a measurement of the weight of the electronic scale, very simple.On the boat again, almost no rain.
Next, to go fishing. Boatman is dedicated, not only do simple tools, but also hands-on do bait. Fancy fish food is fish, the fish didn't know it was their own similar?, in fact, is a big fish eat little fish. Soon, the first fish very smooth Scott; after a while, not the bait was stolen ate, is a half day fish are not biting rod, fortunately, through the efforts and insist that everyone well, eventually caught 7 fish, only the most dedicated to fishing, nothing.In the end I went to a place that is a great little island scenery, but still have to pay on the island, we don't want to, and is close to swimming.
17: 30, we went back to the hotel.
Dinner or dinner the day before the small fishing village, the taste is very good, who also service charge free. Play a day early to have a rest.On this day, sometimes it rains, sometimes windy, our spirits high, viewing in the rain, rain, rain in swimming shopping, is also very interesting things!

Freedom is a Mecca for everyone, since the proposed to go with it.Someone, just down to write a postcard.
Whenever they travel, they have the habit of sending postcards. Send yourself an encouragement, an expectation; mailed to family, is a miss, a return to a friend, is a free from care, a blessing. Although the postcard can be placed in the foreground, but I still want to send will be more at ease in person. Thought that the post office will be hard to find, you can walk along the busy streets, walk to the seaside. The beach is a beauty, a tourist police maintain public order. Roadside red tutu was then a car dock, strange how parked them. Street and get a lot of speed flying, whenever there is a pedestrian passes, the car will slow down significantly, allowing pedestrians.Compared with Karen Beach, Alba East Beach more commercial.
It is late at night, many people still. Roadside loudspeaker does not stop with ads attract tourists, the neon lights on a store next to a competition the who, there are more shiny small vendors follow visitors kept pushing the release a Hung Ming lantern. Release a Hung Ming lantern is a square of paper paste, now buy now lanterns placed, but unfortunately their pocket money or not, can only look at the bright rose, appears, and then rise, disappear into the night, let the little star in many pieces of bright.Take a walk on my own, still a little fragile, can't go too far.
Watching the sea, here's the first day, like to visit an old friend, anxious to see it soon. That will leave tomorrow morning, I wonder how long it will take to come back again. Many want to stay a few days, take a good look at it, quietly accompany it, it seems there are still many things, not to speak of and. In fact you know no parole, it will know, be aware of. It is always extremely pious heart, is it, allow yourself to learn how open-minded, learn, learn, learn to adhere, optimistic, only a pure soul, heart love, will be happy!Seventh day: November 12, Wednesday, Phuket-Bangkok-Chengdu
