As we had arrived in the dark last night, it was almost like a little surprise to wake up and see the beach we were at. This morning we decided to take the motorbike and explore some surrounding beaches before it may get a little busier on the weekend. We past a temple who looked like they were cleaning from moon festival celebrations and Lila tried the lion. As we drove through the villages and on the roads which hug the sea, you see nets, traps, round boats, traditional boats and unfortunately a huge amount of fishing and non fishing related waste. We see people sorting sea snails and small roadside fish sellers.

We pass through a small village with skinny streets to find Nom beach which was pretty It's empty, except for a steady stream of fisherman coming to take their boats to sea. We had a swim in the incredibly warm water and some snorkeling uncovered some lovely corals and small fish.

Another treat today was finding lots of little small street food stalls or restaurants. There were many small restaurants in people's houses set up with a few tables and chairs in very relaxed settings. We found a lovely woman and her baby for a great coffee stop. We had Bahn mi (bread roll) in the front yard in a small village. We were treated to some yummy rice paper rolls made on the spot and banana fritters and then later we found a yummy roadside Che (sweet drink/dessert) with some pancake type thing made of rice paper topper with egg and other toppings cooked on coals.Les mer
