    What cheeses me off

    He wasn't, he came with me to grab food. I collected my belongings from the desk at the restaurant 🥴

    What cheeses me off

    Left the table briefly to get Master TC some food and came back to everything gone including fresh pot of tea and my personal belongings that I'd left on the table 😭

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    Lemongrass mojitos and red curry for lunch. The photos on the menu did not do this place justice (also 60b/kg for laundry so we got two birds with one stone). Followed by massages next door for three of us, they kindly curtained off three beds so we could keep an eye on Master TC as well.

    What cheeses me off

    I usually leave a child at the table while I refill, I've found no one wants to sit with them 😂

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    Yesterday we all went out on a day trip with the driver we used last trip. This time we headed up to Khao Sok to see the elephants and do some bamboo rafting. A busy day but fortunately not a long one. The trip down the river was lovely, and included a delicious lunch at the end.

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    We've been enjoying the hour of free drinks every day. And today took one of our included three course meal. Kids also got three courses from the kids menu which was great (and both were happy to see salmon on the menu).

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    Hotel is pretty insane, it's a proper big resort. We booked a swim up family room so you have access to a pool along the front of the room. No bedrooms but there is a sliding screen between the kids space and ours. We have a king bed, they have a trundle. It's not huge but manageable. We are...

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    There is a similar step in our bathroom here in Thailand and I've tripped down it four times in the first day 🥴 Flight to Thailand was nice. Slightly delayed but our upgrade to J came through and we had the whole cabin. Satay or a sandwich offered as a refereshment, dry flight too. Arrival was...

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    We were checked through in Melbourne so an easy return to the airport this morning. Hotel bus at 10 then straight through into the lounge. Our bid upgrade was accepted so we have settled in the regional Golden lounge.

    The movenpick KLIA is pretty amazing. We have a royal suite 😂 Breakfast was also amazing, if you wanted it, they had it. Even a chocolate fountain and ice cream machine.

    The TomCat Family's Luxury Escape

    I seem to have the faulty wireless charging pad, TV says his works fine but mine does not. Food was fine, though nothing spectacular. Kids got a chicken starter and chicken main (though Master TC didn't get a main) and a chocolate dessert. I went for the beef.
