We set off January 14 for a trip to Phuket Island with Barb and Galen. We spent a quick one hour air plane ride there. We enjoyed swimming in the sea, snorkeling, sunset dinners and family time spent together. What a beautiful Island. We stayed at the Marriott Renaissance. The beach was huge, clean and hardly any people. I was so fortunate to spend my 38th birthday in Phuket on January 15. The Adaman Sea and Phuket Island are truly tropical paradises.
