Hello!

Hi everyone,

I booked a holiday to Thailand two weeks ago (3 nights in Bangkok then 10 in Phuket) for myself and my 14 year old son. This forum is fantastic in all the tips and advice on offer so thanks to all who contribute. We will be in Phuket for the first two weeks in April 07, have arranged to visit the sanctuary with Richard on the 2nd of April and can%26#39;t wait! Sorry I%26#39;ve nothing to contribute at the moment but hope to make up for that when we get back.

Especially enjoyed your Phuket pages Cathy, thankyou

Hi Wendy

Welcome, keep reading an you will find this forum very addictive and you wont be able to resist posting at some point. We are in Phuket in April, where are you staying? We go the Elephant Rehab on the 10th, there are a few of us from the forum over there in April and although we%26#39;ve never met, I%26#39;m sure we will by the end of our trips.

Hello!

Hi Wendy,

I am about to embark on my 8-months-in-the-planning trip with my 13 yo son (almost 14). If you like you can follow our travels at www.travelblog.org/bloggers/reet - there is a subscribe button that will send you an email each time we do a new blog! Hopefully I might be able to give you some tips on what works for a 13/14yo and what doesnt!!!

Good luck with your planning. You will love it... it is addictive without a doubt.

Welcome Wendy,

Yes, this forum is totally fantastic!

We will also be in Phuket in april from the 1st - 9th staying at the Club Andaman in a couple of cottages. We will have our two boys with us 16 and 17.

Have you read about the Friday night BBQ down at Rawai beach. It is hosted by Richard and Megumi and seems like lots of fun! There are already some forum members meeting on the 6th April, maybe you might like to join us.
