Pühapäeval võtsime ette väikse ringreisi Phuketi ümbruskonnas. Olin seda plaaninud juba mitu nädalat, kuid kõigepealt tuli kallale haigus ja siis pühad, mille ajal oli ka Phuketil piisavalt põnev olla. Nii et sõitmiseni jõudsime alles nüüd.

Eilne päev möödus meil vahelduvalt emme peavalu ja Saska jorina saatel. Mis tipnes sellega, et täna hommiku käis külas hambahaldjas ning tõi kiku nr. 7 (ülemise vasakult teise)!

Tänane päev algas iseenesest väga hästi. Saska lasteaeda, väike eine kohalikul turul, seekord siis taimetoidu pühadele kohaselt ainult riis ja hein kastmes, siis väike jalutusring ümber kohaliku hiina templi, et veidi seda tähtsat sündmust fotografeerida.

18-26. oktoobril on Phuketi vallutanud kollased lipud ja taimetoidud. Ning kohalikud, kes seda paastumise püha väga tõsiselt võtavad.
