Good morning, Vietnam!


I left my room in Hoi An, on my rented one-speed bike, for the beach.  It was 5:15 AM (I should have left at 5 as I just missed the sunset.  The first photo is of the beach.  Unlike sunrises on the beach in the Carolinas, where there will be a few walkers and fishermen, but your mostly along, here there was a party with people swimming, playing soccer and boys through mud!  The photo below was taken from the bridge to the beach (a few hundred meters from the beach itself).  
Again, I'm not around here much this summer, as I am traveling and I'm mostly posting in my other blog.  Be good!

  1. What a gorgeous photos and how amazing to see so much people at the beach so early in the morning. Probably because it gets so hot at daytime?

  6. Funny that you titled this entry what you did. I'm writing about my coworker's bike trip from Saigon to Hanoi for my employer's website and I thought about the same title. However, to reflect the bikes, I went with 'Tour de Vietnam'.
