Ban Bang Niao

Another cruisey day. Just went to the mainland for a few hours to do some pottering.

First, stopped at the Pearl Factory where we learned about the pearl farming and harvesting process, after which we perused the jewellery for sale. Franks got a nice necklace and earrings. The factory is on the mainland, but the farm is on Coconut Island where we are staying!

Then a quick trip over to the Premier Outlet Shopping mall to see if there was anything good. It was all quite expensive here so we didn't buy anything. Except Frankie got some prescription glasses for $90! We pick them up tomorrow so we'll see if they're cheap or not.

Lastly, we went to Central Phuket which is a huge shopping mall. They have 4 storeys, each being the size of Sylvia Park. They even had a go karting circuit on the roof! Had heaps of cool brands like Superdry, Fila, Adidas, etc., but again quite expensive so didn't buy anything.

We did want to do Go Karting today but it was raining so not possible.Leia mais
