FIRST LIGHT

Mui Ne at sunrise.

My hotel was right next to the beach and I could hear the waves during the night.

I decided to get up early in order to see the sunrise and was very surprised to see there were many people already on the beach. They were no holidaymakers but families pulling very large nets which would bring them food to eat and to sell.

They had been up well before dawn pulling for hours the long rope attached to the net which after hours of struggle would bring them their reward.

    Hi Jean-Noël, sometimes it´s really good to get up very early ;o))
    Wonderful pic with beautiful light! I like it very much!

    We have also noticed that people in Vietnam are getting up very early. Beeing in Nha Trang at 5:30 am on the beach there have been lot´s of people doing there exercise like Tai Chi or jogging.
    Somebody told us, most people in Vietnam get up about 4 am.
