1. It’s a long overdue reunion with my only sibling. With our parents long gone she’s the only DNA person closest to me alive, aside from my kids. The last time I saw her was like 7 or 8 years ago. She lives in the US west coast with her family. Her kids and mine have been separated for the same length of time and this would be a great chance for them to do some catching up.
2. The place – Phuket, has long been a “must see” place for me and my wife and this would be the time to step out of our dreams and tour the place. My son and his fiancĂ© also live and work here and reuniting with them in their turf has been one of our yearnings.
3. The break from a 6-day weekly work schedule is really rejuvenating. Engaging in my passions – snorkeling and scuba diving will keep the wrinkles down and yet increase the sun spots on my aging face… I don’t care.
I chose to post only a few compared to the 300+ photos that we took with 2 cameras. The photos will show why this vacation was a blast.
