Phuket
The sun was setting as the fridge and I pulled into the port at Phuket Town, and even though it had been a relaxing trip up from Railay, there was that definite spark when you know it's all going to get very messy. I met up with Matt at the Patong Green Mountain Hotel, and it was only a matter of minutes before I had the first beer in my hand.
The days after that adhered to the simple formula; explore Phuket by motorbike in the day, drink as much as possible at night - interspersed with ladyboy tussles, ping pong shows, Hottie McFitties, getting "dude" and "sweet" tattoos, tactical Jenga, and lots of random kung-fu moves. Matt was definitely setting the bar for future fridge sessions.
The day when Matt had to leave for Koh Samui came around way too quickly. My liver needed some down-time to recover so I kept our room on for an extra day just so I could sleep and pretend to do some work.
If all that seems a little vague for the events of two weeks, well, I'd agree. Some really great things happened, but I can't write about them publicly. In the next couple of weeks, some of you will be receiving an email telling you that your superhero account has a new superpower - x-ray vision - you'll be able to read the private blog.
Just about to jump on a plane to Chiang Mai via Bangkok to meet Beth. Back to Bangkok on Saturday and I fly to Sydney on Monday 18th!
