Uncle Nick and Uncle Sam

What a wonderful time we had with Uncle Nick and Uncle Sam, they have been gone one day and we all miss them terribly.  I just wish I was half as switched on as they are when I was their age.  In fact, I wish I was as switched on as them now.  We had so many great discussions, and I just enjoyed having them here so much.  Sebastian was spoilt with attention and it was clear they genuinely adored being with him.  

We spent the last day like we started, back at our beach.  Sam made us this lovely picture and we had another nice dinner together.  I cannot wait till we meet up again.

Sunday Funday

I cannot believe it is Tuesday and I am now only blogging about Sunday.  As the world goes mad over the Coronavirus (I hope that I don't live to regret this comment) we took Sam and Nick to the South East to stay a night without us.  We had lunch and a swim with them before heading back to what felt like a very empty house.

Last week I posted about the island still being crazy busy.  I now realise that parts are and parts are super empty.  This hotel had no one in it, and usually, it is ridiculously busy.  I have not really mentioned the Coronavirus, and I guess I should so that I remember when I read this back at 80 (assuming I get anywhere near there).  I guess I do not really see it here, well no one has had it in Phuket and according to the government not many in Thailand. I think now we can only really watch and wait to see what happens.

Babies Reunited

It has been far too long since we have seen some of these babies and we even got to meet another baby girl yesterday at Aloni's house.  Sebastian was super duper excited and laughed and played the entire time.  I just wish we could see each other more often as it clearly benefits the babies so much.  Sebastian was desperate to show them he can almost crawl and was so close so many times. He did impress them with his standing skills, holding onto something of course.  It was a lovely afternoon and I was so happy to see almost everyone (Sarah and Salyn were sadly absent).

It was such a nice get-together and I must ensure that it happens much more frequently!

Island Adventure Yao Noi

This is one of our favourite spots and I still cannot believe it took us three years to get there (first time last May when pregnant with Sebastian) and now almost a year later for the second time.  It is so close to get too and easy peasy even for a day trip.  We took Sam and Nick there as the views are just spectacular and we knew it would be good for their Insta!

It really is just the most beautiful spot and we must try and get there more often before we go.  It is so close to Phuket but yet so different.  

Sunsets and Baby time

We have been so so busy that I have not found anytime to write about our adventures.  Beaching it, blue treeing it, teaching Sebastian to crawl, well it has just been crazy busy.  We had a great time South, but it was so so busy, I cannot believe they say tourism is down here.  It certainly is not in the South, that is for sure.  I was happy to return North and my 5km radius!  We have enjoyed another beautiful day in the sun and then went to watch a lovely sunset.

I love having them here! We have had just such a good time with them.  

Simon Cabaret

We have headed down South for a couple days to show Nick and Sam a different part of the island.  Last night we took them for a quick drink in the infmaous Patong and then headed to see Simon Cabaret show.  We had been to a similar show close to our place a few years ago and I can say this one was 100 times better.  The performers were all engaged and looked like they were having a great time as were we.

 We first went to big Buddha to have a look at the views.

 Buckets for everyone

 The Tuk tuk ride.

We had a very busy day, ticking lots of Phuket boxes.  Really would recommend the show if ever in Phuket.
