Well we left London and 12 hour flight to Hong Kong and we were delayed and hour from Heathrow which then only gave us 50 mins to change planes to go to Phuket. Our luggage had been checked through all the way and we just had to make the plane which we did. Got to Phuket in our jeans and t-shirts and waited by the carousel to get our luggage and it didnt turn up. I think the fact that we only had the 50 mins between flights they just couldnt get the luggage on the plane. When we went to the lost luggage desk they were aware of it and it was to come to us that night at 9pm. Well that was ok but we had to go straight to the markets to get some summer clothes - shorts, bathers, etc just to get us by til the luggage arrived which it did. I think we were pretty lucky that this has only happened the once with all the flights we have done. It was straight to the pool and that is where we stayed - we just love this place. On the 6th May we spent the day around the pool also then it was into town to do some shopping and catch up with Matthew's friends Pat & Chief - they recognised us straight away and they spoilt Matthew again.
Today the 7th it was once again round the pool and the kids slept in until 12pm which is really great for them to catch up on all their missed sleep. This afternoon we went go karting and did some more shopping then home to the hotel. We only wish we had 2 weeks here but it has been nice to have this time to just relax and not have to do any sight seeing or tours even though we have loved them.
