Phuket Opinion: Seduced by parking


Parking, especially at the Phuket International Airport, requires creativity. Photo: Leslie Porterfield

PHUKET: I didn’t know what the Thai Watsadu superstore in Thalang sold when I pulled into the parking lot over the weekend, but I wasn’t there to shop in any case. I went just to enjoy the parking lot, which I had admired from the road. It’s completely covered, offering protection rain or shine, and very well laid out.
