Hanging Out on Patong Beach
It wasn’t a total loss when it came to the beach. We couldn’t sunbathe, seeing as how it was overcast for the whole trip, but that didn’t stop me from splashing around in the ocean like a fool. I hadn’t been to the beach since I was a little kid, so bad weather or not…

Thais Love Animals
The first time my wife and I walked around Patong looking for a place to eat we happened on a nice restaurant on a side street. There’ll be more on that later, but when we were seated we looked around and realized that we were surrounded by cats. It was kind of funny that the…

Not Quite What We Had in Mind
Going to Phuket was something my wife and I had really been looking forward to. We were excited about the beach and the food and whatever entertainment we could find.

Asian Shower Design (Much Different From American)
There are some things that you just somehow expect to be commonplace, regardless of where you go in the world, one of which is showers. Well, that’s how it was for me anyway. I’ve spent my whole life, up until I came to Singapore, believing that all showers were created equal. What I mean is…

Heading to Phuket!
That’s right! Around the time this is published I’ll be hopping on plane to Phuket in Thailand for some much needed rest and relaxation! I’m looking forward to hanging out on the beach and finding out what the town has to offer in terms of cuisine. We’d been thinking about going to Phuket for about…
