Oh i cant really sleep that night as my mind kept going over and over again thinking what else I would have missed out. We woke up really early to the airport. Sonia was a bit sleepy, but didnt make a fuss. After checking-in we had breakfast. Sonia started to picked up momentum and started to be active.
Up on flight she was so happy with the Caucasian girl sitting beside us that she kept making 'conversation' with her! Just before take off i made sure latched her on. She fell asleep right after due to tiredness and only woke up moment before touching down. I wanted to latch her on again but this time she refused. Thank god she's not affected by the air pressure. And bhoy was she a lucky girl! She got the limited edition plane plush toy from Bangkok Air for their 45th Anniversary. We even got praises from passengers sitting nearby on how well behaved she had been!
Koh Samui International airport was a lovely place. Beautiful 'hut' type which make u realised that u actually are on HOLIDAY! Only problem is that it was really hot! And we rented a car to ease travelling around the island.
The moment i stepped into Intercontinental I was overwhelmed with the breathtaking view! Fell in love with it instantaneously! The staffs were really friendly and helpful too! Amazingly how Sonia knew she was on holiday and she was really really happy! We even had a baby cot ready for us in the room which we didnt use by the way. She ended rolling on the big bed with us. Intercon has the most amazing sunset open air bar exclusive for their in-house guests. Simply awesome and amazing.
The next few days were just exploring around, driving around for food and walkabout. Throughout the trip Sonia was really well behaved and happy. Perhaps she loves spending 24hours a day with her daddy and mommy. No separation anxiety! Food was lovely and most people we met was very friendly. Sonia had some fruits and coconut flesh.
Both me and YK even went for a massage together. The staffs at Apples Spa Experience offered to take care of Sonia and bringing her to me when she needed to feed. Baby wearing her was easy, only problem was the real hot weather during the day. And it never failed to rain daily in the evening so the umbrella came in handy. Koh Samui is not a baby friendly place as almost all the restaurants or eateries we went to do not have baby chair except for one, but the locals really love baby!
Sonia loves the buggy ride we needed to take from the parking to the lobby or the nearby Intercon facilities! She's learn bout Thai Massage, Thai food, Thai Language, the sunset, even saw a toad feeding his dinner on this trip! And I've learned that Sonia loves to communicate with Caucasian! :D
Intercon has a baby/kid play room for parents to drop off their kiddo if they want to go diving or snorkelling or any programmes of their own.
Sonia was well behaved on the flight back too despite not taking a nap during the flight. But we had to sacrifice one in-flight meal. Wont be able to handle her quick moving hands starting to grab everything within her reach. Yet again this proud momma got praises for her little Sonia that was really well behaved!
It was a truly wonderful holiday which was made possible by YK. He had put in all the effort to book the flight and the hotel, car renting, read up on places to visit, places to eat! He even did such wonderful job in taking care of Sonia!
BUT the horror started after the holiday where Sonia's separation anxiety went up notches higher!!! Well just have to be patient with her and hoping for the phase to be over soon!
