After the chaos of Saigon, we spent two relaxed days away from the masses, staying at a seaside resort in Mui Ne. The miles of sandy beach here are mostly deserted, except for small fishing communities, scattered among the dense palm trees.

Mui Ne is perhaps best known as a prime spot for wind- and kite-surfing, so Miha (with the kite board) and myself (on the windsurfer) spent a day on the water. Mui Ne is also home to Vietnam's own little desert, complete with sand dunes and all. They certainly make for some nice photos.

We left Mui Ne the same way that we arrived, taking a long bus ride to Nha Trang, the next coastal town on our journey to the north.

The descent was a long, up and down struggle, covering a considerable distance back to the road. We were picked up by an old Russian army jeep and arrived back at the Sapa...
