Title: Greeting from Phuket Thailand Post by: APTech on January 14, 2010, 12:49:05 AM As posted over at FGI:
Left the snow and cold of Minneapolis Tuesday morning for the warm & sunny beaches of Phuket Thailand. The journey took 26 hours, but I arrived without incident last night at 11:30 local time (cdt +13 hours). To say that it is a shock to the system would be an understatement. About 89 with lots of humidity. Booked 5 dive trips with the highlight of them happening next Friday to the Similan Islands. I will be trying out my underwater camera setup for the first time on Saturday. Pic's will be posted sometime after that.

Phuket? No, PHUKEWE! Title: Re: Greeting from Phuket Thailand Post by: dystopia on January 14, 2010, 10:08:23 AM Nice! I was last in Phuket a few years ago. At least you get an ocean breeze to help with the humidity compared to other cities there. I'm not a diver, but the Phi Phi islands and coves were amazing to see.
I believe chefmark from FGI lives in Phuket. Title: Re: Greeting from Phuket Thailand Post by: twoiron on January 14, 2010, 01:04:56 PM Whenever you meet a lady, you should always great them with a Christmas Handshake.
There'd be nothing worse or embarrasing than to meet a lady who has a basement full of junk. ;) Title: Re: Greeting from Phuket Thailand Post by: APTech on January 16, 2010, 10:18:45 PM Dys - Mark, who goes by Slackula now and I are going to meet up at some point. i'm going to give him a call later today.
Twoiron - I know all about the Katoeys. This isn't my first rodeo, in fact it's my seventh. Photo's from yesterday. My first attempt at underwater photography: (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a260/kfiedler/P1010002.jpg) (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a260/kfiedler/P1010003.jpg) (http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a260/kfiedler/P1010007.jpg/img][img]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a260/kfiedler/P1010008.jpg) Title: Re: Greeting from Phuket Thailand Post by: APTech on January 16, 2010, 10:25:38 PM img]http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a260/kfiedler/P1010007.jpg[/img]

Don't get at by a shark or no *feces* like that. Or Jellyfish. Or get a kidney stole. Just sayin' |
