After a really long time, we all have been to a holiday (thailand 2019) !! and needless to say it was just too good. I personally dint yearn for 'just one more day here in Thai' !! Meaning it was a satisfactory vacation. Kids never wanted to come back home. We are home last night, but am sure their hearts lay somewhere in those beaches :-) Pratheek's for sure !!
Ishi might be missing her cousins. At times I feel she misses that company. The company of same age gals. I feel sad about it....but thats life. She'll slowly grow up to learn to enjoy the times when she has what she wants and go easy with a 'its ok' attitude when she doesn't. Better if she learns it fast. Atleast being her mom, I cant see the pain or emotional dearth in her heart during those times. So i really wish she should soon understand this difference.
And then talk about vacation. We started on 10th morning(flight @ 9:15am) and reached Bangkok @ 2:45pm (UTC) By the time we were done with immigration formalities, we were left with a little time before we could get into our next flight to Phuket. We just did some window shopping and had an authentic Thai meal.
Later after we boarded the flight and landed in Phuket. By the time we checked into our hotel, it was almost 11pm. We dint waste a minute and hit the sack almost immediately.
Day 1- Next day had a late breakfast and met the other group around 10am. All of us quickly got ready, spent a very short span on the beach right opposite to our resort. And then headed to Tiger Kingdom. Was an ok experience with the tiger cubs there. I personally should have been a bit more bold and held them well.
After that we had lunch at an indian hotel, came back to the resort, freshened up, and been to Fanta Asea. Nice place for a half day outing.
Day 2 - Islands Ishis first Scuba. Hope she loved it. Mine was good as me n Sid could do it together. Hand-in-hand literally. Wish to have such exp again. Pratheek wanted to do it but was undreage plus am sure even if they allowed am sure he would not have been able to handle the gear. Next island we did snorkelling Including our fearless Pratheek. Am glad he did. What a braveheart my son is !!
Day 3- Phuket to Krabi
Day 4- Snorkelling again. All 4 of us
Day 5- To bangkok by flight. And temple tour and Royal palace tour.
Day 6-
Day 7- Got ready and checked out of our hotel. With heavy hearts. We were all quiet on the way to the airport. Sad that this is the last day of our holiday.
Points I wanted to mention. Though with occasional thikkalu, Ishi has been really sweet during the entire trip. Though Pratheek being Pratheek was his "normal self" to her she used to come out of the grumpy mood in no time. Overall, I could see my kids are growing up. Not just physically but mentally too.
Next on my bucket list is to go on a holiday with just Ishi before she flies out of the next.
