Phuket 17 June

This week included Wai Kru day, which is basically give flowers to your teacher day, I got some really beautiful ones and some are still making my apartment smell beautiful.

The kids in my class have been full of beans as ususal, the thai teacher in my room has absolutely no control over them and they break into a mini riot almost whenever it is not my class, I don't know how she can teach in those conditions, I forsee some meetings with the headmaster and the Parents in some of these childrens near futures.

The weather has been a bit sad and drissly this week, and we have moved up a gear into some serious humidity, the rain though is extremely polarised, it breaks out in one part of town but a 10 minute motor bike ride away the weather has been perfect all day, almost spooky in it's oddness. We went to the butterfly garden today, it was a great way to spend the afternoon, watching butterflies unsteadily drift from one flower to a banana to feed and back again, the leaf wings are amazing they really do look like dry leaves. They also have a rather large collection of hairy tarantulas, creepy.

Anyway here's some pictures to keep you amused.
