Dunes and waterfalls!!!

In recent days we have been hunting at first for dunes in Mui Ne and waterfalls in Da Lat.

Firstly we arrived to Mui Ne to get some last rays of the Sun before heading to North Vietnam that is much colder. It was to our disappointment another resort and it was quite expensive from where we had to run away quickly. So we rented a bike and made a tour to see mini grand canion with mini Colorado river :) We were walking down the red stream of water that was coming out of red hills of sand and therefore we spotted the similarity to the famous American spot. Close to the place we were sliding on the red dunes. The amazing thing about the place was that close to the red dunes there were white dunes as well. It was incredible for us how quickly the nature is changing its colours. Well, at the moment you have to trust our words that the place was amazing as due to  lack of software we are unable to upload some pictures.

After Mui Ne we were trying to get to Da Lat. Well, there was some confusion with booking tickets so the bus wanted to go away with our luggage but without us! At the end, Salvatore was sitting on a kitchen chair on the bus for 4 hours and we could hardly see the driver who was covered with tonnes of luggage.

Fortunately, safely we arrived to Da Lat, city surrounded by waterfalls. The biggest waterfall we saw was Elephant Waterfall. It was quite difficult to get to as the rocky path was wet and very slippery. The view was amazing but to get some good shots it was impossible as the wind was carrying drips of water towards the camera and the pictures weren't clear. So, stubborn photographer saw some other place from which you could get the shot. Unfortunately, it was a coffee plantation we had to get to. We headed to the local village, where we could not find anybody speaking English. Thanks god there is internet and hospital local people. We found one guy that was willing to help. Salvatore and the Vietnamese were talking using google translator :) which was fun as the translation was sometimes very funny. At the end we were taken to coffee plantation where there were few unwelcoming dogs, but we manged to make some shots.
