We arrived in Thailand last Wednesday on the island of Phuket. This is the largest island on the west coast and there are several beaches all around the coast. We are staying at one that is towards the south-western end of the island called Karon Beach. It is beautiful here and we lucked out because the sun sets directly in front of us at the end of the day! As if that wasn't enough, at approximately 50 yd. intervals along the beach, there are tiki tents that serve all kinds of fruit shakes, juices, beers, Pad Thai, and sandwichs...all for around 50-80 Baht (about $1-$2 US). Also, along the road back to town, there is a vendor that sells Thai pancakes with your choice of filling for about a $1...we have taken quite a liking to the banana ones. Orginally, we were thinking of only spending a couple nights here, but have decided to extend :-)

You two and your bananas! Phuket is our favorite Thai restaurant here in Rochester; we'll be sure to take you there next time you visit ;-)

I am hoping those are the same things I was raving about before you left - the ones I had were more like a crepe though and made with egg right in front of you. Be on the lookout in Bangkok.
