Phuket is famous for its night life and party world. We found some awesome live music. this my friend, Hootey, who let me sit in with him on Mondays at the ATM Bar. He is a phenomenal guitar player. I had a blast jamming with him and his band.

The famous “Lady Boys” of Phuket.

And some “real girls” Thai ladies are world renowned for their beauty and charm. there is a good reason men come from around the world to find true love in Thailand.

Thailand has three faces, the natural beauty, the party life and the spiritual relm. Here is the Big Buddha, which i visited five times and each time was a awakening experience. Life in Phuket envelopes all three faces, all enter wound in a maze of joy and all under the watchful eye of the Big Buddha.

I was blessed by the monks

i visited several Temples and was always moved by the experience.

No trip to Thailand is complete without an elephant ride

While westerners enjoy the boating and natural beauty, trip the light fantastic with the night life and become awakened by the spiritual side all with the features of the western world, the Thai fishermen go about life as they have for time eternal, unchanged.
