Late last night we arrived in Phuket (pronounced Poo-Ket), Thailand for a long weekend. We are staying in a hotel called Bursari near Patong beach which is on the south western side of Phuket Island. Patong beach is a great place but it is extremely crowded with tourists and merchants trying to sell their goods. To escape the crowded beach, we took a "long boat" (above, bottom right photo) to the Forbidden Island for some relaxation. We were able to swim, snorkle and bask in the sun! Being so close to the equator, the water on this side of the world is nice and warm. Paradise!

Merry Christmas to you two! Thank you for blogging all your memories and sharing them with us. You are doing a great job Jessica!!! I can hardly imagine what a difference it is for you to be there during the holidays and away from your families, but enjoy it for you are making lifetime memories that you will share one day with your children. We think you two are so adventuresome and love to hear what you have to say. May God keep you safe and in His will and care. With much love,
Bernie and Kathe Kale
