Sunset at Patong Beach, Phuket

2008.09.26
From Saigon, Vietnam, I flew to Bangkok then to Phuket, the southernmost part of Thailand to relax at the beach. The beaches and the islands here are most-talked about so I have to go and find out what’s the agog about this tiny island.

And of course, this is the last leg of my holiday slash backpacking, so I want to really make it relaxing and less-stress slash less strenuous.

And I thought, Phuket fits my ideal place to relax. So, here I come.

As soon as I arrived in my guesthouse, I was offered with a complimentary welcome drink which was I just fabulously needed.

After the formalities and kept my things in my dorm, I grabbed my camera and headed to the beach.

And this was how nature welcomes me to this island.











Believe me, I had 9 trial shots of this before I came up with this fantastic jump. Thanks to the camera stand and timer. ;)

And this is my current laptop screensaver. Make this yours, too. LOL...
