Vang Tau - A Day at the Beach

Gorgeous ocean side which is a popular Vietnamese holiday area.
The Seafood Restaurant was wonderful as the "Hotpot" was prepared for us. Yummy food!
From our table we watched the fisherman release his nets. The "boat" was a large bamboo basket which I was told was very difficult to balance in.
Sitting on the beach was great. 34 c. and a bit overcast so we would not burn! Beautiful sand and warm ocean, but unfortunately the sand is full of garbage and lots of pollution.
Heading home at rush hour was an experience as 4 or 5 lanes try to merge into 2 and the outside with motorbikes 3 or 4 abreast.
