Phuket (pronounced Poo-ket(hehe))

Hey! i am in Thailand now, more specifically on the island of Phuket. Geographically i have no clue as to where i am in relation to the equator or really any country. And i am too lazy to look it up. Anyways ill tell you all about the flight....

It was boring and long as...something that could be described as really long. Flew out of Frisco on July 3rd at like 1130AM. Flight took about 12 hours and we arrived at 2:30pm on the 4th of July (HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOMINIC!) into Beijing. I couldnt stop thinking about how I was in pressurized aluminum can travelling at 600 mph about 7 miles above ground. It helped me sleep. Then our next flight left at 5:05 pm and we arrived in Bangkok at 9:00 pm. We arrived to find that our airline lost 4 out of 5 suitcases along the way (luckily the one we did have half of my stuff)....so that kind of sucked. Still no word as to where the luggauge is...they claim Beijing but i dont doubt it was stolen (it would be extremeley easy to steal baggage anywhere for that matter).

We stayed a night in Bangkok, woke up at 5:30 am and we rushed to the airport to get to Phuket, just barely making it to the gate on time. So Now i am on Phuket, a really small island that i assume is in the Pacific Ocean? We are going to go to an island Phi Phi(pronounced Pee Pee (hehehe)) off the coast tomorrow to go snorkeling and shtuff. I would love to post pictures of my adventures....but i dont have a camera. Plus i wouldnt know how to do that...posting pictures.

Just a few things that i think i have learned these two days of traveling:
-When speaking to people who dont understand your language very well, only talk about one idea at a time. Anything more will confuse the hell out of them
Actually that's all i will talk about. Now im going to try and relax by lounging at the pool :D see ya!
