10 June: Deo Hai Van

Far in the distance is Deo Hai Van, winding its way between Nha Trang and Da Lat, Vietnam. The treacherous road is traversed by buses, vans, cars, and even stage coaches. I took this trip four times -- thrice when I was in Vietnam in 2004-2005 (and once was during a midnight run on a stage coach; imagine doing that at night! eek!) -- and one when I went to VN on the immersion trip in Jan '07. The sights were beautiful! but the tree is sort of in the way...

Stunning!

Merci, ma cherie... and I can't take any credit for it, as you can clearly see. This is thanks to a stunning view created by nature and interrupted by human hands, and point and click digital cameras. My contribution to it was to choose a spot that has a tree splicing the view. (I like to think there was a legitimate reason why I didn't scoot over to the left some more -- the reason escapes me for the moment.)
