Rose Garden: Phuket Trip Photos

Finally! I managed to upload most of my pictures. I tried 3 times. First 2 times, Blooger hanged on me when I was halfway through. At last on my third attempt, i succeeded! *Applaud me please*

Yesterday was a shitty day. Today was not much better. Hope tomorrow will be a better day for you, you, you, and me.

Enjoy the photos, though some of them not very well taken...
