It’s the day before the last day of the trip.  We had a balance of 2000THB in hand.  No more planned activity.

We woke up bit late and relaxingly enjoy the lay on the bed, and enjoy the laziness. Until we willing to wake up for shower and ready for food.  Well, let’s have a look at how On On Hotel is.

The single bed is bigger than the normal size, which can sleep 2 persons if you don’t mind a bit squeezing.

Simple toilet and shower room too.

As we are more familier with the town by now, we no more need the map to go around.  Turn right from On On. About few metres away, there is a second hand bookstore! (I have been wanting to show this fantastic bookstore but decided to do the journal day by day without skipping)

Book store few shops away from On On Hotel.

SouthWindBooks is the bookstore name.

I love books, though I might not read all the books I bought. Ok, to be exact, I think I love books instead of loving reading.  There was no one around to look after the bookstore which consisted of 3 shops.  I can see several languages books were on the racks.  There were English, Asian, Japanese, French, German and Norwegian.  I wandering at the bookstore for sometimes. If I were to come back next time, I would spend time on them.

The we headed for our brunch.  Yes, the tasty soup noodle again. Actually I love the coconut drink more. Then we walked to the market again, which was just around the corner.  And then, slowly we walked, to the bus terminal!  It is quite far. But I think, I can only get to know the place, by walking. Then, we walked to the Robinson complex.  There, we had our KFC and sausage! The KFC was spicy as it was Mexican style.  I thought we should try the normal KFC to have a fair comparison?

Some of the decorations at the soup noodle shop. Where is the soup noodle photo then? Find out at Day 3.

At 2pm, we decided to take a cab to go places further.  I agreed, why we keep the THB for? Let’s use it.

We met this driver at the Robinson.  We asked him how much he charge for few places like Sea Gypsy Village + Abalone Farm + Wat Chalong + Phromthep Cape for sunset.  After some negotiation, we agreed at 400THB.  Here we go our final trip.

Here is the sea gypsy village. The dog was camera pro. It walked to the bar and standed there waiting for shooting.

After that, we headed to the abalone farm.

For a plate of 4 abalone, 450THB. For 6 abalone, 600THB. For 8 abalone, it is 800THB. Find out more on Phuket Abalone Farm.

After that, we went to Promthep Cape for sunset!  There are many locals and tourists that were enjoying the beautiful view. It was lucky that, we were able to view the sunset.  Right after the sunset, it started to rain!

Beautiful sunset.

From the cape, the Phuket Big Buddha is in the view.  There is this Bread Mountain in Brazil with a status of Jesus, Rio De Janeiro.

That’s a 400THB trip and with dinner at the end, we called it a day.
