Playing Photographer in Phuket

At the resort, there were so many great photographic places to take pictures of Tyson's family.
I love this first photo. We had just finished breakfast and were walking back to the room so everyone could change into their photo-taking-clothes and decided to stop for a few candid shots.

 

Look. No kids in this picture.

 

All I said was, "OK everyone just sit in this big chair." They quickly figured out good positions. I complimented Ashton on how nicely he put his hand on his hip and stated clicking. I love how the chair and the tile floor give a sense of unity.

 

When I suggested to the boys that they should hold hands, I was happily surprised that they reached out to each other and took hold without complaining. Or hitting. Or kicking.

 

Danger on the Beach

How terribly disapointing. No swimming on the beach. Do you see the red flag? There must be high waves. High tide. Or a rip tide. What is going on here? We came to Phuket to swim in the warm water. To feel the tropical breeze on our face. To get a tan that everyone would envy.
But just hold on a minute - what do I see? Beach Massage for 400 Bhat. A quick calculation in my head tells me that 400 bhat is about 12 US dollars. Forget the beach. Who wanted to go to the beach anyway?

We are in luck. It looks like Massage Lady is getting ready for work.


The boys settle in for a 15 minute massage.

The special back bend treatment is for kids only.

Do you see the big palm tree? Our room at the JW Marriot is just behind it. A perfect location for a short walk to the beach or to the massage parlor.

We are not having any fun in Phuket. No, Really. No fun at all. It is no fun at all to order lunch and have it brought to us beside the pool.

These two are not having fun. No siree.

Watching baby elephants on the beach - No Fun.

It would be more fun if you were here.
