Introduction.

I apologize in advance for the bone language, grammatical and spelling errors, because at school the grade in Russian was far from 5. : ).

So it's been 2 months since the arrival from this fabulous place. And indeed Tai is Paradise.

At least for me, because In general, I was abroad for the first time and immediately Phuket. Long thought to write or not to write a review, but because. every day the longing for this sea, the sand and the sun gnaws more and more, and the heart aches more and more, when remembering Phuket, I decided to refresh my memories by writing this review, well, dear tourist readers, it may bring some benefit: )

Well, let's get started.


Why Thailand? Because many of my friends went here and, judging by the stories, they had a very, very good rest, but basically everyone was in Pattaya and, judging by the reviews, they liked everything except the sea. But I just wanted a good sea and a quiet and measured rest. My friend who visited Phuket said so, PTT is cheaper, but Phuket is better, he described everything so colorfully and beautifully that it became my paranoia, dream, desire, or whatever you want, but I really wanted to go there, where there is white sand, blue water, palm trees and warmth, BOUNTY! The choice was made in favor of the latter. I was going to go for 2.5 years : ) I still couldn’t make up my mind, either there wasn’t enough money, or different problems, but on one of the fine days I decided that EVERYTHING was enough, I had to go, score on everything and just relax. I chose the date based on: the decline in the flow of tourists, a little less price tag than in January + customized it for my birthday : ))). Location: Beaches chose between Nai Thon, Karon, Kata. Travel agency 1001 tour, turned up by accident (a friend advised), promised a good discount in principle and it happened. The discount was good, about 7-10%. Couldn't find a cheaper one in town. Tour operator Pegas-Touristik, the cheapest MOT in Thailand + its own a / k Nord Wind. The hotel was determined for about a week. Nai Thon was dropped because it is relatively far from Patong. The beaches of Kata or Karon remained, I considered Peach Hill hotels and a couple more. Woraburi Phuket Resort was recommended in 1001 tours. According to the price tag, I just liked it : ) for 2 with his wife 84.000 of our Russian tugriks. 14 days, 14 nights. Superior number. Breakfasts. There were doubts about the "river" that flowed nearby, but judging by the reviews, it did not cause any special "crime" in anyone. : ) I was tempted by the proximity of the beach. Well that's all. Payment made.IsitontheInternetforhours,wanderingthestreetsofPhuket,includingalongthestreetwhereinafewdaysIwillbewalkinginshales,aT-shirtandshorts,onthestreet+30,sea+28,thisisafter-40inNovosibirsk:))),throughanInternetwalkerhttp://mapjack.com/. : ) I'm dreaming. . . : ) I started to sleep badly. . . Thoughts don't leave, I'm flying for the first time. . . Thailand, Phuket, sea, sun, beach, no, it's not real. . . I can't fall asleep again, I'm tossing and turning. . . well when, well, rather....

Well, the day of departure. Novosibirsk city. Tolmachevo airport. On the street during the day -30, at night -35-40. Dressed lightly, Autumn jacket, sneakers, jeans, 2 bags (wife tried, took things that were not needed there) JACKET!! ! It's in Thailand!! ! Tip one . . Take things to a minimum. Just what you change into upon arrival. The rest of the summer buy there and cheap! Experienced people have already changed into slates at the airport : ). I'm afraid to fly terribly, because. haven't flown in almost 20 years. I read reviews about a / c, about the Boeing - 757, which was to be flown. About a / c reviews are average, the planes are also not very old, the a / c fleet consists of 4 such aircraft... the age is about 14-20 years. According to accident statistics, 757 is somewhere in the middle of the 20 most popular aircraft in the world. Well, there are no other options. A few candles in the church before the flight and pray, pray and pray again : ) Hmm....I have already written so much, but they haven’t even taken off yet, what will happen next ?? ? : ))) Well, let's continue. Passport, customs control, and now we are already drinking soft drinks in a cafe, drinking sleeping pills and sedatives before takeoff : ) We go along the sleeve to the plane, it shakes me up (here's a damn coward : )))). Departure without delay at 23-30 local. Takeoff. . . takeoff. . . Feelings overwhelm. Feelings are not real... fear, anxiety, a feeling of flight, under the wing of the plane there are lights of snowy cold Novosibirsk, it is decreasing, and the sea, sun, beach and sand are waiting for me, only this calms me down. so we gained altitude... you can unfasten the belts, but for some reason I don’t want to do this, although I know that if anything, it won’t save : ) Then I listen to the player (I took 2 pieces : ) then we watch LOSTa on the laptop that we took with you, although you don't have to. After 2 hours of flight, uncomfortable seating begins... the rows and seats in this Boeing are really cramped. First turbulence. . . prayer again. . . sleeping pills and sedatives don't help. Tin!! ! : ))) It's time for feeding, I didn't want to eat, but I have to! The food is so-so, not homemade, of course, but you can eat... Thai sauces for rice, again a balm for the heart... I will be there soon... After eight hours of flight, they finally said that we would soon land at the airport... rather. . . decrease. . . lights on the sea. . . it's not clear what it is. . . most likely lighthouses. . . but it's still beautiful to look out of the porthole : ) The landing is soft, our airplane shook its wings before touching the landing gear of the airport strip, a little strained and. . . that's it. . . we're rolling. . . applause (I think to myself, you clap early, when we stop, that's all : ))) Well, finally, braking and only now I understand that I did THIS!! ! A dream come true! I'm in THAILAND!! ! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

We get off the plane and here it is the warm, sweet wind of Thailand, maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa I meet the Pegasus guides, they sit down on air-conditioned buses, it's already hot, although the time is 5-30 in the morning... it's humid. The road to the hotel takes about an hour, taking into account the fact that we are the last to be brought in. I look out the window... here it is fabulous and unusual Tai. During the stops, I go out for a smoke, I try to start communication with the accompanying Thais in broken English, I say that I am going to Woraburi, in response I see an outstretched thumb up and a phrase in the same broken English, but with a certain Thai accent "Good Hotel" is again a balm for a heart : )))

And here is the hotel. Just the same as in the pictures. I haven't slept in over a day. SALIHAAAAAAA(Thai greeting) I will never forget Thais smile and I answer SALIHAAAAAAA(beautiful : )! We sign some papers at the reception, make a deposit of $ 100, and now they lead us along the corridors of the hotel to our room 423... Oh, nastolgia came flooding in, I'll go smoke, I got nervous... I'll be back right now, don't go : )


Well, here I am again with you.

We are in the room... I’m worried that our bags won’t be brought... I went and looked, no... the Thai guy is carrying, smiling again... he gave a tip of 20 baht, I read on the forums that you need to leave and give everywhere and here we are in the room... and even now I can't believe that I'm already HERE : ) My wife persuades me to lie down to rest and sleep, I'm outraged. What are you favorite about? I did it for almost 3 years, let me here, and you tell me to sleep? ! You take a shower, lie down, and I rather ran to the sea to watch HIM, touch, rejoice, meet the dawn, I'm in Thailand, in Phuket !! ! I RUNN to the beach . . I cross the road and here it is the crispy sand of Karon . . as they wrote in the reviews. Really CRUNCHES! Sea....morning sun... rather into the water... here it is the Indian Ocean! This is a buzz, nirvana, orgasm, as you wish, but this is IT... it is worth the money, difficulties and nerves, here it is a moment of pleasure and great human Happiness! I run back to the room, wake up my wife, who has already fallen asleep, "Oksana!! ! I swam in the INDIAN OKENAI, lick me! Look how salty I am! Well, lick me!!! " The smile of happiness never left my face. My wife grumbles, but looks at me understandingly and smiles, "You are like a child, Andrey : )" At that moment, I really was a child...

To be continued. . .
