Cam Ranh Bay
17th Century Temple
Who is this stranger in the helmet?
Andy why are you wearing a helmet?
For being a tropical country
that looks pretty dry
Are we to the beach yet?
No fences?
OK We will lead you home
Yahoo!!! Sun and warm weather
Andy, where are you going in such a hurry?
No, she is not the cook
What are all those round tubs doing?
Are they catching our dinner?
Rub a dub dub one man in a tub
Today we traveled from Nha Trang to Mui Ne. It was pouring down rain when we started out but quit a few miles down the road. It has rained all but 3 days of our trip, so the sunshine was welcomed.
The first place we stopped was Cam Ranh Bay International Airport, as this was where Andy flew into when he came to Vietnam 40 some years ago.
The next place was at a 17th Century Temple built by the local people that lived here. They are built with rock and brick with no cement, just rock on rock. While we were there a man on a motorcycle stopped to look also. His name was Leo from Chek Republic. He was headed for Ha Noi, and we wished him well as it is a long dangerous trip on motorcycle. In the picture he has a helmet on. Andy also found an old helmet and tried it on.
We continued on to Mui Ne and came across a herd of cattle just taking there time walking down the highway. There was not anyone around watching them either.
Finally reaching Mui Ne we wasted no time to get to the beach and getting into the warm water. I was the only one that did any swimming however.
The Vietnamese walking down the beach was selling fresh sea food. She will also cook it right there for you.
The last three pictures are of fishing boats, and yes some of them are round and look like a tub. It is amazing how fast they can get it moving with only one oar out the back. Some of them fish all night and when they come into shore in the morning, their wife will meet them and get the fish and start selling right on the beach.
Tomorrow we will go to Phan Thiet and then back to Bien Hoa.
See you tomorrow.
