Thailand with Mom

Mom had arranged for a stop in Thailand, on her way back from Dubai, so I decided to join her and introduce her to my second home, Phuket.

We had just under a week, so we spent 5 days in Phuket with a day trip to Koh Phi Phi and the last day, was a whirlwind tour of Bangkok before Mom jetted home to Vancouver.


My second home - Movenpick Karon Beach Resort in Phuket.

Our lovely room in Phuket.

Fueling up for a big day of snorkeling at Koh Phi Phi.

Our snorkeling boat at Koh Phi Phi.

Entering a lagoon to snorkel in.


Mom heading out to sea.

At Maya Bay, where the Beach was filmed.

Back at the hotel, enjoying some cocktails and live entertainment.

A favorite past time, soaking up the sun by the pool.

Last day, breakfast of champions in Bangkok.


Grand Palace.

A new friend for Kuro & Molly.

Mom's new boyfriend.

The largest reclining Buddha in Thailand.

The body is covered in gold leaf and the bottom of her feet are mother of pearl.


Good luck coins.

Chatachuck Market - over 3000 stalls!

We were pleasantly surprised with our room at the Holiday Inn Bangkok.

Saying Goodbye.

Mom's crazy taxi ride to the airport.
