The next several entries recap our vacation to an island off of Thailand, Phuket. We hired a driver to take us to Patong for some shopping and eating since Patong was about an hour from the Mariott Resort. The city was busy with cars and motorcycles buzzing by. Most of the Thai people travel by motorcycle. Sometimes we even saw a whole family piled onto one motorcycle!! We shopped and shopped~we bought knock off brands of the latest styles of pocket books, Tiffany jewelry, American movie DVD's, wooden vases made in Thailand and clothes! With some barganing tips from Robbie and Perry, Jen and I were able to get some good deals (especially Aunt Jen with all of her big name pocket books!!). We had a nice dinner right on the beach with our feet in the sand! The girls had a great time running all around on the beach after we ate dinner. Aunt Jen took the girls to use the restroom, which she had to pay $$$$ for them to use~~not only was the money issue a shocker, but the restroom facilities were!!
