I put "top ten island vacation destinations" into google and didn't see it.

I'd like to go there, I know someone currently living here. List or no list, I do think most people would find it an enjoyable place to visit.

...and while you were googling that, i googled the pronunciation for Phuket which is Poo-ket

...top ten asian island destinations:
1. Maldives
2. Bali
3. Phuket
4. Mauritus
5. Seychelles
6. Koh Samui
7 Langkawi
8. Borneo
9. Lombok
10. Zanzibar

...my question is: Is it one of those?

Then I can't not say you're wrong. Was going to give it to you with the Bukit Timah Nature Reserve but googled it and found they're separate.

You're up! Have a happy 4th!

OK, where in the world am I?


ps: I'm going down to our local fireworks in a few minutes...at Narberth playground. This afternoon after the little parade and festivities, I plopped my two blankets and chair front row center; been doing that since 1978 when I moved here. It's really a great fireworks for a small town and we sit so close it's extra scary!

I hope all you have a nice 4th of July, too.

Shell, I'll have some vanilla ice cream with a slice of each pie, thank you.
