Sawadee, Phi Phi!!!

So what comes after a wedding?
Ha-ha-honeymoon trip of course! Weeeeeeeeeeh!

We booked the tickets long time ago and since then, I've been checking Phuket Weather Blog. Teehee! And ever since working and living in Singapore for over a year now, the beach life has never been the same compared to the life in the sunny beaches of Cebu. So, after waiting in vain, it was but a perfect idea to have our island get-away for our honeymoon. I'm probably the more excited one as the 'hubby' is not as freaky as I am when it comes to samba under the sun. But I am sure he's more than excited about something else,too. Ha ha ha.

On the day of our flight last July 30 8:55am, we prayed hard the weather will conspire us ---- and Thank YOU again Mr Universe, it sure did all throughout the 3-day trip! Wooopeeey!

It was a 1.5hr plane ride from SG to Phuket, so we arrived roughly around 11am. We had to travel another 1hr taxi ride from the airport to the Rasada pier by then (that cost us only 100 baht/pax). We paid ahead for our boat tickets at the airport for about 800 baht (2-way Phuket-PhiPhi Island). [Trip tip: We realized that you can actually just buy 1 way and save more buying a cheaper return ticket when you're in the island.] We lounged around the pier where all the rest of other passengers were also waiting. Funny how we noticed we were the only 'not-Caucasian' there and always mistaken as one of the 'locals' as Thai people totally were similar to Filipinos. Even the whole country side was too familiar back home, except the scribblings/ads everywhere are written the Thai way (which actually made me dizzy in trying to read it LOL).



By the time for our boarding, which was 230pm, I was feelin' delirious already and can't wait to see how Phi Phi will mesmerize me. Hehehe. The boat trip was another 2 hrs ride, half the time I was eyes-wide gazing over the ocean and the other half, catching more sleep. Oh, you wonder what the hubby was doing? Playing Soduko on his phone. LOL!!!

When the boat was approaching the Phi phi islands, I had to get out of the sun deck area and be greatly awed with what I was seeing. Gawwwwwd, I wished we're never going home. Hahaha


Off we went our way to unpack to our very nice bungalow-style hotel room (all worth for only 1750 baht/night) which was peeking over the beach itself. Woot woot!!!




As it was already late afternoon, we didn't dip yet as much as how tempting it was already since we wanted to find our way first to the whole island.

So what better way to spend the rest of the afternoon?


Sky-gazing.
And singing..."Will you still love me...tomorrow?"

More juicy photos coming up soon...Weeeeeeeeeeh!
