We moved to another hotel for the last 3 nights of our time in Thailand, Avista Kata Beach. It wasn't as nice as the Avista Hideaway in Patong but it was still really nice. It was just smaller, and older, and only had one pool, but otherwise the rooms were almost exactly the same and the breakfast spread was just as elaborate. Anyway, this hotel was maybe a quarter mile, max, away from Kata beach. So we spent a good amount of time lounging on that beach. Below are some pictures of it. It was a nice beach, very clean, but also quite crowded. There were probably a thousand lounge chairs with umbrella lining the beach - three rows deep. We also noticed that both times we were at the beach we were surrounded by Russians - Kata beach seems to be the place where all the Russians go on vacation.
This isn't beach related, but here is a picture of some tuk-tuks, which are little open-air cars that operate like taxis. We rode in a few of these and it's all well and good when you're on flat straight roads but when you go around sharp curves and up and down hills at a fast pace it's pretty scary.
My typical Thai lunch that I had at a restaurant on Kata beach, Khao Phad:
