Dreams do come true


The beach of Kantary Beach Hotel, Khao Lak was like a dream come true when I visited last week – the ocean was calm and the fine white sand seemed to stretch on forever into the distance.


I sat on the wooden swing watching the sunset and fantasizing about a beautiful beachside wedding...


Imagine my surprise when I looked up to find my dream in front of me – a bride in her gown was strolling with her husband along the beach.


I think I would like to get married here…

Cape Panwa and Delicious – ‘a tasty bookmark’?



What is the connection?

"Cape Panwa", with its 5 restaurants, and "delicious" are two words one often hears uttered in the same breath.

Visit Panwa House and have the Gaeng Massaman Neua.

Visit Top of the Reef and have the Supreme de Canard al’Orange.

Visit Café Andaman and have the Chicken Ceasar Salad.

Visit Uncle Nan’s and have the Alla Milanese con Salsicce su Cestino di Parmigiano.

Visit Laem Panwa and have the Khao Niow Ma-muang.

And visit the beach and have a pizza!

This is not the only connection!  Delicious is also a social bookmarking web service – the tastiest, that allows you to keep and manage all those links to web pages and articles.

Sharing your Happy Holiday Photographs – part 2



photobucket App
Which photo apps are a must on holiday?



Travelling through Asia regularly, one can't help but notice the increasing number of people carrying an electronic device that is able to connect to the World Wide Web.



This has subsequently led to websites developing apps specifically for these new platforms - ones with features that cater to smart phone and tablet pc users, such as the sites that enable you to upload photographs taken with your phone directly to them!



The simple way to do this is to use the associated app. After chatting with fellow travellers at airports and at various places around Phuket these are my choices.
