Phuket: Indigo Cool

On Boxing Day, we flew to Phuket. We decided to stay away from the major tourist area (Patong and Kata) and stayed in Indigo Pearl - a blessed 10 minute car ride from the airport. The hotel's decor is based on the tin mining concept so there were elements of metal and tools. We had a room with its own plunge pool that came in handy when cooling off from the heat of the day.

One time while we were lounging at the main pool, ladies from the spa offered me a free neck and should massage. Of course, I said yes, thank you! Lauren and Emma were also offered this service and with lots of shy yeses from the girls, they also were massaged. They enjoyed it immensely that they had a full body Thai massage later that week.















We also did white water rafting (Category III-IV) and elephant trekking in the forest. We also got a smooch or two and a quick and gentle massage from a baby elephant.


























































We squeezed in a quick snorkeling trip near the hotel.
