2 February 2025 Da Nang: A 3 Mile Walk Along the Beach

 


As the flag indicates, the breeze was blowing in from the sea.  It was a good thing because the sky was cloudless and the sun was strong and hot.  We saw a temple with a whale in front, several beach clubs, a large ship up on dry land, a billboard sized public art display, swimmers, sunbathers and other odds and ends.


It is a long stretch of beach


The round boats dotted the beach


Taking the dog out


All this to find his car keys on the bottom of the boat


Boat or sign, or both?


A funky looking pigeon


Octo-sign


Lots of ribbons but the ladder was too small


Driftwood art 


Fishy fishy


I really like this one


A scary one!


These looked great in the breeze


Red red ribbons


A billboard on along the sidewalk had lots of public art


The lifeguard had to get some lunch


The Lord Whale and the temple An Ong which is across the street


The lonely monk


Fishing for fish to fish with


Our building is right under the palm frond


A mystery box.  It is not Loi Ra, we thing perhaps an electrical box


Tiny crab tracks in the sand


Metal buoys 


A roadside shrine


This shrine did not make the cut


Late application of sunscreen


Bai Bien Beach, the triple B


A boat out of water


Looks normal from the front


But it is a Vietnamese flag from the side


My guess is a Liquid Natural Gas ship


Someone's snack?


These shells were very small


The flags are out on display for the new year


Looks like another snack


No windows on the second floor


Ear picking!


Almost 3 miles
