Exploring on our own east side Phuket.
No pictures today - just haven't had time to sort them.
Went to up market Boat Lagoon (marina). Admired boats and view.
Didn't have a drink there - outrageous prices!
Instead called in at a 7-11 for a cheap drink.
Then went back to Chinese Shrine we visited yesterday = where my camera batteries died.
Took more pictures and explored some more.
Walked down village street, which reaches down to the sea on east side of island.
Admired one house and we were invited in for a drink.
Lovely interlude.
Watched people at work - polishing mother of pearl, sorting tiny little fish ready for market, saw the birds that one man had......includes a couple of sea eagles.
Bought bag of bananas fried in batter and sesame seeds.
Then to Tescos.
Snacks, rice crackers, drinks, etc.
Home for cup of tea, snacks and rest.
Then to cheap cafe - with Jessica's best friend, a Korean girl,
Children finished school today - for 5 weeks.
This afternoon and evening the three children have played so well together - playing, would you believe.....schools!
I think they did more work than on a normal school night.
Don't yet know what we will do tomorrow. Depends on weather a bit.
I will get some photos done hopefully.
