Phuket 2012 - The hustler

The kids club at the Phuket hotel we went to actually has a very small separated area for older kids.  This small area has its own TV, game consoles as well as a pool table so that the older kids can hang out separately from the younger kids.  

Luckily, there weren't that many people when we were there so we managed to get a bit of time to shoot some pool.

We couldn't just turn them loose on the pool table (obviously) so I had to supervise them very closely while they were playing.  In practice, this meant that I had to take the shot with a little bit of shot assist.

Luckily, we didn't break the gauze!

As you can imagine, we didn't exactly set the table alight.  Still, we did have a good laugh and the kids were ecstatic whenever we did pot the odd ball.

Phuket 2012 - kids club ftw

Now that I have finally managed to clear out the pictures from our trip to Macau, its time to post some more holiday snaps - but this time, from our trip to Phuket.  In July...

Hey, give me a break!  Its not easy finding time to post every week!!

As with our previous trips to Phuket, we went to a resort hotel and spent all of our time there.  Luckily, the hotel had a pretty decent kids club which the kids could spend hours at every day.

Believe it or not, he was playing Phantom of the Opera!

Giddy up, hoss!

We didn't spend all our time there just watching the kids though.  The kids club had a set of giant dominoes so I took the opportunity to play a quick tabletop (or in this case, floortop!) game with Gerry.

I need to ditch these high value tiles asap!

I win!  Huzzah!

The kids club there also puts on various activities - including a towel folding tutorial which you may remember from my previous trips to Phuket.  Gordon even managed to get in on the action with a little help from his mummy.

That elephant has either drunk too much water or needs to start breathing!

All in all, I have to say that I really liked the hotel kids club.  There were a ton of activities for the kids which kept them busy during the day.  It should go without saying that this meant they were knackered by nightime.
