Day 4 in Phuket

Today we had another lazy day around the villa.  Whilst Peter was playing his new computer game on his laptop I went swimming in the pool or floated on a lilo reading my book - it was nice just to relax.

In the afternoon we headed over to Patong, which is one of the main resorts in Phuket, known for its wild nightlife (!).  After looking round the shops we thought we would have a look down Bangla Road - it was like a madhouse down there with lots of lady boys parading around!  Every few yards we were approached and asked if we would like to see a ping pong show or go to a go-go bar - we politely declined!

We didn't like Patong much and were glad we weren't staying there - it is very full on and fine if you like to go out and party every night but it wasn't our scene at all!
