Coming into harbour, slowing gliding between the strange rock formations coming out of the sea, catching sight of the incongruous funfair park. There was a lot of excitement.
Vietnam – Halong Bay – Arriving at dawn with the Squid fishing boats between the picturesque rocks.
The boats use lights to attract the squid and then catch them in large numbers. To see them in the twilight was a nice welcome.
