Great third day in T-land.  The family headed to the " big town" of Patong Beach.  It is three miles to our north.  What a contrast.  We are a laid back resort hangout while this place is the " devil's playground". Power pirate shops along with "wall to wall" open air bars.  We will be heading back next week for some Thai Kick boxing. Stay tuned. Christa struck it big time with a Channel leather purse.  Sure she will give you her version.  Had to be back by 3PM for the SCUBA check out.  We made our way home by 5PM were we " crashed " the Hilton top floor lounge.  Great sunset, food , and drink until they figured I was a low end Honors Member and kicked us out. It was fun while it lasted.
