Our window view of the city and mountains
Even though Nha Trang is only a short distance from Ho Chi Minh City in the South, the climate is dramatically different. When we arrived in Ho Chi Minh, we were greeted with torrential rain, thunder storms and lightning. The rain recurs almost every day; it is usually unbearably hot and humid just before the oncoming rain. Here in Nha Trang, it has been nice and sunny. The monsoon season comes in October, five months after it arrives in Ho Chi Minh.
Our getaway retreat in Nha Trang is surrounded by barren mountains and clear blue skies.
Here's a panoramic version

Our train ride to Nha Trang started out at 6am. The coach was comfortable with reclining chairs, LCD panels playing endless Charlie Chaplin silent movies. The attendants in their red uniforms kept busy dishing out blankets, water bottles, and meals that were delicious.

They say some folk here, living on the water, will never set foot on land. Every day, the inhabitants of the surrounding villages get out on their sampans to trade surplus garden vegetables. The boats are full of squashes, yams, watermelons, and taro roots, forming a floating market on the Cai Be river in Tien Giang province.

The streets really are as crazy as they say with motor-scooters playing hari kari with the rest of the 4million other bikers here. Ill be making some movies as we witness the carnage!!
