Norway,
Thailand and
Cambodia.

Any questions ? |
Travelled from Nha Trang to Mui Ne.
|
 |
Our lovely pool.
The room was very spacious with a very fancy bathroom with open sky and a really ingenious solution to how to dual-use a door. Both to the bathroom and to the shower/toilet area. |
 |
|
Off to the sand dunes where the
kids had fun.
Phuong like to pose.
Here with a small tree.
|
 |
 |
Waiving her arms is Phuong's
trademark. Martin is going for a walk. |
 |
 |
In Norway, we slide on
snow, here the kids do it on sand. Martin trying out the sand barefooted. |
 |
|
A group of kiddies
having fun.
A lot of half-finished building around in Vietnam these days But building they do. |
 |
 |
Flats or vocational
homes? We don't know. Lovely long, white beaches. |
 |
 |
The "The
Long Winding Raod" by the Beatles. Lovely song. Arrived at a new sand dune for bike rentals. |
 |
 |
The logo of the rental
joint. Son on a beach buggy. |
 |
 |
Phuong and Martin in
front of an old American jeep. It still goes. |
 |
 |
Off onto the dunes. The dunes go straight into the sea. |
 |
 |
Phuong in her favorite
position. Phuong and Martin on the top of a dune. |
 |
 |
Martin battling his way
to the top. Watch the video. Finally there. |
 |
 |
Phuong taking photos of
our jeep. Water in the horizon.
|
 |
 |
I looks like a river,
but is the sea. Temping beaches, but the water is treacherous and it is deep very fast. |
 |
 |
Therefore, swimming is
not allowed since people has drowned here Farewell to our guides at the rental center. But the jeep was expensive. USD 30,- for a very short trip. |
 |
 |
Phuong collection
memorial sand to bring back to Nha Trang. Lot of empty, newly build buildings. |
 |
 |
They fence in acres and
acres of nothing. Why? Expensive fences around nothing. Somebody must have had an idea about this. |
 |
 |
Off to Smile river in
Vung Tau. A really lovely creek running under street level. This is downstream. |
 |
 |
But the omnipresent
rubbish is always there. The creek upstreams. |
 |
 |
But they ry and have
set up rubbish bins. Phuong walking back to our starting point downstreams. |
 |
 |
Phuong walking
upstream. They even had table alongside the creek. Vietnam is a really capitalistic country with free enterprise run by one party. |
 |
 |
Martin on his way
upstreams. Time for lunch.
|
 |
 |
First time ever. Snake
on the menu. And plastic rubbish in the sea. |
 |
 |
Martin tried giant sea
snails. Tasted like old car tires and just as tough. Utterly inedible. But oysters are always good, baked. |
 |
 |
Son loved the snails, or so it seemed. |
 |
 |
Martin kept one as a
souvenir. The Swiss House of Mui Ne. Best restaurant in town. |
 |
 |
Pole shaped like a
giant bottle outside the Swiss House. chThey had some special beer and The Blonde tasted best. |
 |
 |
A quote from Charlie
Chaplin in French. "Poetry is a love letter written to the whole world". Martin enjoying his blonde. |
 |
 |
Martin misunderstood
"fondue". He thought is was oil and meat, but it was bread and cheese. Not
what he expected. Communication problems. Closeup of "Poetry is a love letter written to the whole world". |
 |
 |
Hamid and Martin in
front of a picture of his home town. Martin and Hamid, the owner of the Swiss House |
 |
On Tuesday August 18th, we
were off to Vung Tau.
