My Getaway to Phuket
Some of you may know..or may not know that last friday me and my friends have flew off to Phuket since we've been planning for this vacation since April..So, Friday afternoon all 5 of us, Jae, me, Najib, Arel and Azam arrived at LCCT at about 3 pm since our flight takes off at 3.45 pm.
Ok, so, we got onto the plane, everything from timing, schedule proceed as planned. Nice. Well, the cabin crew is not that friendly, but wth?? I was so happy to hear the flight only took abt 1h10 mins to reach Phuket. I don't like to be on plane for long! So, everything went fine..we reached there about 3.55 pm (Thailand Local Time) MY time is about 4.55 pm. No delay.
All very excited and get off the plane anxiously, went through immigration smoothly. Once out, gosh...all the cab drivers, rover, minibus asking where we're going and all..hahha..seriously dunno which one to choose. With different vehicles and rate, we were like..arghhh!!!
Finally after a while find a decent land rover which can take us directly to hotel for the rate of 800 baht per car (Equivalent to RM 80 here). Not bad, plus share among 5 of us and the journey takes about 45 mins. Same as in KLIA to KL ---> except nicer car and comfortable. Here, imported car is quite cheap..you can almost see honda jazz all over the place and the land rover is practically used as cab! How I wish i can have that pleasure here..urghhh!! :(
All the way to the hotel, I was like pening2..and nauseus (must be bcause of the sleepless nite before)...plus the road is pretty much going downhill from Fraser's hill to KL...OMG!! really can't stand! I sit quietly, laid my head back waiting patiently to get to hotel.
Finally we reached Coconut Club resort, where we suppose to check in. Not really a fancy 5 star hotel in the city but a nice, quite, little chalet nearby the city. Like it, although minimal facilities, but service, privacy and less restrictions of course!
