We have left Pulandia/Indonesia and have arrived in the major tourist destination of Phuket, Thailand.
Last Saturday was our last day in Medan. We mostly were packing though we did go out one last time with 2's. Sunday we were up early to catch our flights. We went via Singapore on Singapore Airlines. Singapore Airlines is in the same alliance as United so I have some carry over status and we were able to use the club before we departed and got priority boarding. Singapore Airlines is considered one of the top in the world in terms of service. Although we flew Economy, they served a hot meal on both flights even though those flights were only an hour and half long. How they can pull that off is quite the feat.
Even though the flights were a good connection with one hour journey's to and from airports on either end resulted in a long day. We were pretty tired by the time we got to our place in Rawai, which is a bit calmer than most of the beach locales in Phuket. Thank goodness we are thoroughly experienced users of the Grab ride-share, delivery system. We were able to order groceries and a dinner meal and have them delivered to us within an hour.
Today, Monday was recuperation. We took a short walk just to get our bearings, ordered more groceries as I decided to cook something rather than order out. Did some laundry. Tried out our mini-pool.
On Tuesday, unfortunately, we have a jaunt up to Bangkok to do some medical tourism. There is a super quality hospital that does very fast work, very inexpensively. I want to check out how my kidney is doing and get advice on how to deal with my gout given only having one kidney. We'll be up early flying again. Hopefully, we can get everything done in a day.
