Trip to Phuket 3

It is about to rain, we quickly ran into a shop. During the few days trip in Phuket, it almost rains every evening.
The scene behind the trees has turned gray because of rain.









We had some food here. The stall is very simple and have only a few tables. We were adviced by the shoppers not to sit too near the road or else we will finally got wet.










I think it is due to raining, those people who are renting motor-boat at the beach is moving out from the beach.











The "tut-tut" or the so called Taxi are waiting at the beach for passenger. During the raining season, I think they will have better income.











This fellow is packing up his stuff quickly and trying to move out from the beach as soon as possible. You can feel that the rain is going to be a heavy one.










The rain comes from the right side of the beach, but looking at the left side of the beach, the weather is still look good.











This is "Ocean Plaza", where we spent about 2 hours here because of raining. When we leave the plaza, it was about 6.00 pm (which is about 7.00 pm in Malaysia), it was quite dark.











This is at the left side of the beach. If just looking at this photo, you may not know heavy rain is coming soon.

I didn't know tut tut have additional wheel. Are you sure about the boat for rent. Seems to me it is a private boat.

I know in Bangkok Tut Tut has 3 wheels only, but in Phuket, they call this type of 4 wheels mini-lorry Tut Tut also.

You can look at the 3rd photo, at the front of the boat (painted with word butterfly), there is a fellow sitting on top. This is the fellow take care of the boat renting and parachuting.
