The week after we got back from Bintan we went on a family vacation to Phuket with our friends the Liberatores. I can't believe we were together for a week and didn't get any photos together. . . next time. We had a great time with them and look forward to more vacays! (Hopefully when Crew is a little older we'll be able to stay out later ;)
We stayed at the JW Marriott Resort and Spa it was perfect. Everything about it was awesome. Except for Crew picking up a virus and getting sick the last day that was a big bummer. We had an excursion planned to go to Phi Phi but Friday morning Crew woke up with a slight fever. Jer took one for the team :0) and decided to stay back and look after him so I could still go to Phi Phi. Jer had a pretty long day with a fussy baby but he seemed to be ok. Until he woke up in the middle of the night with a temp of 104F and he started vomitting. There wasn't a doctor on site so we had to drive 45mins to the private hospital. Luckily it was a really good facility and we felt completely confident in their staff. After a sponge bath, several failed attempts at an IV, (that was heart-breaking I couldn't stay in the room so Jer had to be strong and hold our poor baby while they poked and poked his chubby little hand trying to get a vain. It was terrible I could hear him screaming outside the door.) and finally some much needed medication, his fever finally broke around 3am. We slept for a few hours and headed back to the hotel at 6:00 so we could pack up and make our flight back to Singapore. It could have gone so bad, we were so blessed that Crew was well enough to get home. After three days the fever was gone and he was back to his cheerful self. Thank goodness!!! Life is not fun when your baby is sick.
This picture was taken 'illegally ' but Jer was sneaky and got one shot in. Boarding Tigerair for our flight to Phuket!!! WE were so EXCITED!
(Can't you tell by Crew's expression? Spoiled kid, for him travelling to all these exotic destinations is just expected)
Waiting to get through customs, trick is to go to the line furthest from the door it goes the fastest.
My boys! Just after arriving at the JW Marriott.
Crew likes small elephants that don't move :)
AMAZING food! The Siam deli on the resort had delicious American style food like the yummy jelly filled doughnuts.
Thanks Emily for these pics I stole them off your blog :)
The kids pool
The blue pool
Beautiful Mai Khao Beach!
I had to add this picture because this may be the scene where Crew contracted the virus. . . the daycare playroom. I insisted that we take Crew to let him play with the toys because I thought he was bored having no toys. . . I'll think twice about that next time.
