Cruise: Phuket, Langkawi (Part 4)

According to Kh, Phuket is even better than before because of the tsunami. Reconstruction means newer and nicer buildings. And that's probably true. The Phuket I saw left no sign of the aftermath of the tsunami.

Despite all that, I still find Phuket a very overrated place. Lotsa people like to go there for short holidays. I'm not sure why. The beach is okay. It's not fantastic, it's just okay. Like a normal beach? The shopping is not good. Things are way too expensive for what it's worth (imitation goods mostly). The food is not really good and not really cheap either (tourist prices). So what's the attraction there? I'll say the beach is probably all they've got. *shrugs*









View from the Phuket dock. Beautiful....













Cool sign.













Parasailing. Really wanted to do just that but due to time constraints, we didnt.

Our dinner. Seemed like quite a popular restaurant but we didn't really like it.















Singapore's seafood is still the best.
