After visiting the My Son monuments, brick towers built in a Hindu style by the Chams from the 10th to 14th centuries on a hill that gets pretty hot in summer, we headed by bus back through Da Nang to Hue. One member of the group complained of being hungry, and pretty soon we had a fullscale turista insurgency on our hands, so the bus pulled off near Lang Co Beach into a roadside truckstop. Fresh seafood was cooked to order and cold beers and Cokes were had for a slight markup on the regular in-town price. What I didn't expect was to have this incredibly scenic view out the back of the Tam Giang Lagoon, a large shallow estuary between Hue and the beach. Pictured here is an ideal family Christmas photo. Now if I can only get around to sending out the cards...
The light was just perfect, making everything sparkle in the late afternoon just after a thundershower had passed.
