A trip to Phuket: Day 3

Time really flies when you're having fun! Without realizing it, it had come the day for us to go home. Our final day was just a short one, so we did not do much except to relax and drink more beer and wine. :) The first thing we did in the morning was to return the motorbike we rented the day before. After that, we walked back to our hotel, by crossing this bridge. The view from this bridge was really breathtaking, especially when we're walking towards to the beach direction.

We had our usual daily buffet breakfast, and we managed to sit at the same table with the previous morning. :)

Tea for me and coffee for Saucer. Aromatic.

Before leaving the resort, we took some time to take more pictures of the beach again. Luckily it wasn't so hot in the morning, and the beach was also deserted.

I love this picture of the coconut tree shadow. ;)

Our flight was at 11am, so the hotel arranged for a pickup at about 9.30am. We reached the airport at about 10.15am, with almost another hour to spare. As usual, since it was the off-season and with the recent emergency state, there were not many people at the airport. We checked in within minutes of arrival and had nothing to do.

We waited in the check-in lounge by ourselves. Saucer was so bored he slept on the chairs! *LOL*

Soon enough, it was time for us to board the plane. Being a low cost carrier, Firefly did not have its own boarding gate from the airport. Instead, we had to take a shuttle bus that fetched us to the plane. It was just a short ride though, less than 5 minutes away.

Due to the small number of passengers there, the airline crew did not stop us when we tried to snap pictures in front of the plane. :) I mean, how often do you have the chance to take a picture with the plane in the background eh? Both Saucer and I took turns to take pictures, complete with propellers in the background.

Goodbye Phuket!

Overall, it was indeed a pleasant trip, albeit short. It was what I needed after studying for my exams for so long! A well-deserved break for both of us. :) Will I go there again? Yes, only after I've visited other parts of Thailand. ;)
