Phuket - First Day - FantaSea

Booked in for FantaSea buffet & show in the evening. Upgraded myself to gold seats for a treat and I'm glad I did.

The show is housed within a theme park style location. They have carnival style games & some markets. There is a 'jungle' walk where you walk through to see different animals - snakes, deer, lemurs, peacocks, tigers etc. And they have some very cool buildings. Will try and get photos up soon.

Buffet dinner was pretty tasty and I was seated at a table with a woman from Sweden & her 4 year old daughter, and an Aussie guy called Leigh. Was first chance of someone to chat to on my travels which was really nice. After the dinner we headed outside and they had bought the elephants from the show out for elephant rides and feeding. I didn't go for a ride as i hope to do that in a few days but I did go over and pat one. It is so strange being that close to an elephant. They feel really strange to pat too. The aussie guy was kind enough to take a photo of me with the elephant so I'm stoked I have a photo of that :)

Headed inside the elephant house for the show and on the way had the opportunity to get a photo taken with a tiger cub. So of course I took it! It wasn't really a cub though as it was pretty big! More of a teenager, but he got draped over my lap and I got to hold him while feeding him a bottle of milk. So neat! Have a photo of that will try and get up soon too.

The show was fantastic! They had magic tricks, dancing, acrobats (they were the best I reckon) and elephant tricks. Definitely well worth it. I had a great time!
