Merry Christmas!

Kelly and I had an amazing Christmas, without snow. In fact, we each got a nice sunburn to bring back. This morning we went to Karon beach and had a blast. It was cheap, beautiful, and warm. After sufficient swimming time, we ventured Phuket Town to look at the architecture (famous) and trek up Rang Hill to watch the sun set over the city. We also ate Thai food (finally)! And I didn't even get sick (yet). We didn't succumb to tourist traps at all (except splurging on a pedicure - a whole $5), we got amazing pictures, and we encountered several gorgeous babies.

Tomorrow we will be kayaking off an island north of Phuket all afternoon and ending the day with a sunset cruise and a Thai seafood dinner on the water. I expect more sunburn and sore feet, but it will definitely be worth it. I would post pictures, but I signed on to the computer without a drive for my camera :( Do check out Kelly's blog, and I will try to post some soon.

As much fun as we are having NOT in NY, I do miss you all. There is something to be said about getting away on a vacation, but there is also a lot of worth in tradition and normalcy. Merry Christmas everyone :)
