The dive trip was great but I was ready to move on. On Friday, December 8, my Dad and I flew from Phuket to Bangkok. I couldn't wait to get back to the capital city for its rich culture and incredible food.


The roof of the dive boat was referred to as "Skin-cancer deck" by the head divemaster. (the clever name keeps the deck sparsely populated)

My Dad and I agreed that the 1.5 hour flight from Phuket to Bangkok was much better than the 12 hour train ride and accompanying 5 hour bus ride from Bangkok to Phuket.



Goodbye Phuket.
