Single Mum in OZ: April 2013

I am sorry it has been so long since I made a blog entry. Since my last entry I have been to Thailand. On Wed 3rd April mum, Madeline and I went to the airport as our flight was leaving at 0:1:00am in the morning. After a short stop at Singapore we arrived in Phuket at about 8am. We found our transfer who drove us an hour or so to the resort in Khao Lak. The Sands resort was absolutely beautiful. I discovered that most of the guests staying there were also using the great deal from Deals.com. The room was beautiful, the pools were gorgeous and the beach was right out the front. The area of Khao Lak itself is extremely quiet and Madeline had a lovely time playing in the pools and mum and I enjoyed a number of treatments in the spa. I wondered around the small town a bit however there was not really a lot of shopping. We had decided to do a shopping tour for one day to Patong however then decided to cut our stay at Khao Lak short by 3 nights and we booked to stay at the Holiday Inn in Patong for our last 3 nights to get some shopping in. I love love the busy atmosphere of a place like Patong and to be honest I think the way we did it was great and I would consider it for my next holiday. Going to stay at a quiet relaxing resort for a few nights and then moving to a busy area. In Patong I did a bit of shopping but to be honest I just enjoy wondering around the markets or the shopping center and taking a break at a little bar for a drink etc.

It was a lovey holiday however now I need to save save save for my next one.

here are some photos.
