My pad (Thai), or yours?

We ate SO many good meals in Thailand. So finally, as I'm sure you've been anticipating, a blog post dedicated entirely to the foods we ate in Thailand.

The "bones" we tried to stick to with each meal included pad Thai, egg rolls, and a local beer. We were surprised that many of the foods we were served were not spicy, as we had expected.

Our "usual" pad Thai from a local place we frequent in Korea has much more of a red color to it from all the spice that is added. This was still tasty and highly satisfying for some carb-lovers like ourselves.
I watched this ice cream being made for me from scratch. It was incredible.
Simple but so satisfying. Fruit smoothies with breakfast.
Street pizza. Slices as big as the moon! Okay, as big as the plate.
Very tasty, and with the perfect crust.
Egg rolls in Phuket
Our last pad Thai was finally a little bit spicy! We ordered "medium spicy" but could have gone up just a notch. We're not heroes when it comes to eating spicy foods. Believe me, at our regular place I can barely handle a level 2 out of 5, and level 3 makes me cry while I eat. But I think a little spice to this dish is appropriate and satisfying.
This one blog post actually can't be entirely dedicated to food...I've got to give a shout-out to my husband as well. Because, look at him! He carried around both of our bags in 90+ degree weather in the blazing sun on our last day when we were in Phuket exploring and killing time before our flight home. The things that you do when your wifey is four months pregnant! (Also, this kept us walking around town at about the same pace for the rest of the day!) Thanks Mark!
