Postcards from Thailand

I like Thailand. It's a place I like to go to for relaxation. I don't do much when I'm there. Just getting pampered. Spa, massage, pedicure, manicure....or just lie on the beach and listen to the sound of waves.


Patong Beach, Phuket. Taken minutes before the rain.



Still at Patong Beach.



A small Thai village.



Duck liver pâté at La Gritta Italian restaurant, Amari Coral Beach Resort.



Still at La Gritta - mussels cooked in white wine sauce.



Die hard calamari fan. Bearbear can have deep-fried calamari for breakfast, lunch and dinner.



How can banana flowers be so beautiful?



Here's another one. No kidding right? It's really beautiful.



I love Thai food although it makes me suffer the following day in the restroom. It's one of the hottest food in the world.



Barbecued lobster - a must-try for seafood lover.



Rim Talay Restaurant, Amari, by night.

Angie, you are KILLING ME! All of that warm sunshine and greenery, the BBQ lobster, and that sweet boy!!! Your photos are a breath of fresh air in a world of frozen white ground. Thanks for posting such loveliness today--it gives me hope that somewhere in the world it is warm. Sigh......

Lin: Give me some cold air. I need 3 showers a day. So bloody hot here. It's suffocating.

Azlan & Vicky: Welcome! I am using a 'point and shoot' camera. Nothing fanciful.

Jade: Tips? Just choose the correct 'shooting mode' when using digital camera. I particularly like taking photos at night without using flash. so far it works well with 'night snapshot' mode.

Miss Igorota: You think the lobster pic is ultimate food porn? Wait until I post the pic of a grilled pig. Pls come back and I'll show you. It's a food brothel! Vegetarians be warned, it can be quite obscene. :-)

Zaya: Big hi! So good to see you here! I miss our coffee breaks at Zurich office! Don't worry, I'll get in touch with your niece.

Katherine: I like your pics too, especially the one with the plane. I felt really guilty after having that lobster.

Best time to go? Any time, the weather is nice. I have gone during the rainy season and missed the rain almost completely, It has rained twice in the 9 times I have been there. I say that because the hotel rates are a little lower in the rainy season. Hey it's just water.
