After a rainy start which forced us to have 3 whole days of lying around, reading books, eating, sleeping and chatting, we then had some glorious sunshine for the rest of our holiday which forced us into, funnily enough, more lying around, reading books, eating, sleeping and chatting!
We stayed at the Anantara which was fabulous. Pool villa on a lagoon, club sandwich central, the friendliest of staff and set on the lovely, long, white sandy Khao beach. A highlight had to be these beds overlooking the ocean, in between 2 infinity pools and actually IN an ankle-deep pool of their own.....superb, superb, superb.....

We hopped on a day trip over to Phi Phi island (tourist central thanks to 'The Beach') which did have that to-die-for turquoise water and white sand that is just heaven, along with 34,000 people to share it with....
We took this holiday to Phuket as our own little babymoon. Our last holiday away together, just the two of us, before life changes completely and our holidays become about high-chairs and floaties.....
Ahhhh.....the serenity....

if you're amazon-enabled in HK (I've heard about the price of English-language books there!), I recommend a new book about Koh Phi Phi and the tsunami (Let not the Waves of the Sea by Simon Stephenson). I should come clean and say he's a friend of mine!
But keep a box of tissues handy - if you frequently burst into tears reading it, it's not because of your preggo hormones.
Yay, looks gorgeous, picture perfect postcard, every shot!! Well hello Xiansheng, nice to see the babymaker on your blog too.
As for travelling & holidays after children, just take them along, make them feel incredibly welcome & they will thoroughly enjoy it, allow you a fantastic experience & never stop taking holidays, grand or small. Love Posie
Your photos are amazing! All looks fantastic to me.
We are planning to visit Phuket in mid-Dec.
Thank you for posting.
I've been looking at some of the posts on this website to get an idea about travel in Phuket for my next vacation.
I love phuket, I love white beaches and crystal clear waters.
Next vacation, I think I'll stay here Surin Beach Hotel This hotel is very nice clean and the people are friendly. VERY nice hotel with helpful staff.
