Cu Dai Beach

We woke up and decided to go to the beach rain or shine! We took along our rain gear, but had no need. It turned out to be a gorgeous day. We rented bikes and headed off to the beach arriving around 9:30. Along the ride there, we saw water buffalo by the side of the road. We also saw chickens and fields full of water, which we assume are rice fields. It's amazing how wet this country is.
At the beach, the wave were quite high. Probably from all the rain. It made for great fun playing in the waves. We held tight to the kids and got tossed and turned around in the ocean. The water was great. It was cool enough to feel refreshing, but warm enough to just walk in.

The girls had fun in the water, but when we got tired of that they played in the sand, found all sorts of shells and made a shell garden. We ate lunch at the beach and then biked back to town and explored some more of the town. We had to get full value from our dollar/bike daily rental cost!

After the bike ride it was time for another swim, but this time it was at the hotel pool. Now we're all cleaned up and planning to head into town soon to find some supper.
