Well we had a ball in Thailand...although there was no "relaxation" time when travelling with a toddler! That said Poppy was really good but due to her age there was a lot we couldn't really do. Phuket was stunning - our resort was just gorgeous....private beach, five pools, restaurants,gym, playcentre and a baby elephant that visited daily and scared the crap out of Poppy. She really wanted to see it each day but then bawled if it go too close!
We ate lots, swam lots, walked lots and shopped lots!
The local people were gorgeous and adored Poppy especially her pale skin and blue eyes. They touched her alot which freaked me out at first but it's just the way they are...she loved it and learnt lots of social skills - shaking hands, new greetings "morning", and answering questions..."what's your name? How old are you"...she loved the attention!
In Bangkok we were joined by my inlaws and they helped out with Poppy - Tony and I got to go out in the evening for a meal and some MORE shopping! It is such a hectic place, great to visit but I'd hate to live there!
We had a fabulous time and we will definately be returning but not until our kids are a little older!
