Phuket Night Markets

Phuket Night Markets

Posted on June 19, 2020 by Lesley | 0 Comments

You can’t leave Phuket without at least attending one of the night markets here. While you can relax at one of the nightclubs near Patong Beach, grabbing a cold beer while enjoying the breeze, that isn’t very exciting. You could enjoy a show at one of the luxury resorts in Phuket but you most likely won’t meet many locals. If…

Posted on November 30, 2015 by Lesley | 10 Comments

We have been in Phuket for almost a month and I spent every waking moment with Athena and Darren during this trip.

We’ve been resort hopping during our trip to Phuket, Thailand. We spent the last five days at Outrigger Laguna Phuket Resort and Villas and it’s the place that feels most like home.

Pool Fun at Outrigger Laguna Phuket Resort and Villas

Posted on November 26, 2015 by Lesley | 17 Comments

One of the items on this year’s bucketlist was to teach Athena how to swim. I can proudly say that I can cross it off my list as she’s almost as comfortable in the water as I am. Just a few months ago, she was too scared to put her face in the water in the pool. Now, she’s diving,…

Fantasy of a Kingdom Show

Thought-Proviking Phuket FantaSea Review

Posted on November 26, 2015 by Lesley | 0 Comments

I heard about FantaSea from the moment I arrived in Phuket. It’s listed in the top ten shows at every Phuket hotel and on every website. Without looking into it very much, I decided to reach out to the PR and ask for media tickets for a review. I knew from the brochure that the entire park is 140-acres packed…

Sandy Feet and Messy Hair at Renaissance Phuket

Posted on November 17, 2015 by Lesley | 18 Comments

We arrived at Renaissance Phuket in Thailand is it’s the kind of property where I’m proud to visit with Athena. She’s only three years old but we try to instill in her an appreciation for the beach and our relaxed way of life. I’m comfortable in flip flops, a casual beach dress or shorts and a ponytail in my hair….
