Cactus Garden at Phuket Botanic Gardens

During our visit to Phuket Botanic Garden there was part of the garden which was filled with various cactuses.  The kids were fascinated to see these prickly plants and wanted to know more about them. They were fascinated to learn that there is water stored in the stems of the cactus and many people rely on the cactus as a source of nutrition while in the dessert.

I loved how rustic the enclosure looked with the rocks , status and cactus in place.

Room with a View

During our road trip in Malaysia we stopped by Port Dickson on the way back and checked into the Avillion Cove Hotel for a night.  The view from our hotel room was really spectacular. We were given the top floor of the hotel and I could enjoy the majestic sunset just looking out of the window.

For a moment it seem that I was in some far off country gazing out of the window looking at the serene sea below.

The kids however were less keen in the view from the window. They were more keen to check out the room instead.

To be more correct they were more interested in unpacking our luggage and looking for their swim suits so they can hit the hotel pool.
