Our Global Gallivants
We went for a 3 hour beach walk today. About half way, we stopped for lunch at a dim sum restaurant. It was surprisingly good. Oddly, dim sum is the only Chinese food they have-the rest is Thai food. On the way back, we stopped at a local market. There was mostly fresh fruit and produce for sale. They also had fresh fish-snapper and barracuda were the only fish we recognized. Lots of clams and mussels, but my favourite table was selling different kinds of curry paste in giant bowls and then a huge mound on top. It was an interesting tour through a local market. It was much cleaner and fresher than Cambodia's.
We definitely needed a swim to cool off when we got back. The water temperature here is 29 degrees Celsius (84 F) and as calm as a lake. We were swimming a short time before it started to rain. There wasn't any lightning, so we just stayed in the water. Then it started to rain harder. It looked really cool because the sea was so calm and all these raindrops were bouncing on the surface. I thought I should get a photo or video of that, so I walked back to the hotel reception and picked up the key, got the camera and walked the short distance to the ocean and it was already finished raining.....maybe next time.
After seeing all the fresh fish and prawns at the market, it made us crave seafood for dinner. We walked along the beach to the restaurant. It was a good dinner of fried fish in garlic sauce and sweet and sour mixed seafood with veggies.
It was a fun day.
