Thursday, our last day in
Phuket, wow! the time has gone so fast. We headed into Patong on the bus from
the resort and did some more shopping. We all had things we wanted to go back
for. The shopping is so good, all copies of course, but good quality and cheap.
You actually get used to bartering and to people trying to sell you stuff you
don't want, but it is so cut throat for them to make a living. Gerard got his
glasses fixed and we wandered around the big shopping centre.
We had a cooking lesson
booked for 4pm and arrived back in time for afternoon tea and a swim before our
cooking lesson. We learned how to cook two types of soup, two main courses and
two desserts. All of them were yummy and we got to eat what we cooked. The
strangest one was the pumpkin in coconut cream for dessert, but it was arguably
nicer than the bananas in sugar syrup. We sat at the pool bar and used the last
of out vouchers for cocktails and headed off to bed and packing up ready for
tomorrow.
