PHUKET OLD TOWN 14TH-16TH MARCH
We are now in Phuket Old Town staying at the beautiful thememoryhotel.com which featured in the film The Beach and we are actually staying in room 204 which Leonardo Dicaprio stayed in. Everywhere is very colonial looking I love it.
The actually town is lovely with lots of cafes and bars and restaurants many painted in pinks, yellows and blues. We ate in our hotel the first night and both had Pad Thai which came with what looked like slices of bamboo on it - the chef said it was banana shoot or something similar and said you could eat it..... oh my goodness it was awful, it wasn't really the taste it was that it immediately removed all of the moisture from my mouth-won't be trying that again.
After breakfast today I had some retail therapy found a beautiful shop that sold only blue and white clothes and accessories oh no not another 2 things to fit in the suitcase.
Had nice late lunch in China Inn Cafe, really beautiful meals.
Tomorrow we are catching the ferry to Koh Lanta back to the beach.
