Another Weekend

I've been busier the past few days as everything has reopened after a period of lockdown. It is nice to see people out and about doing their regular activities, but it has been different without the routine. I met a new friend who asked me to come along on some of her cycling adventures. Cycling is something I really enjoy doing, so I hope to catch up on some routes by following her and @whynotcamp. It's always wonderful to meet someone you can share mutual interests with.

It was a beautiful day weekend. We cycled along the Han River- one of my favorite spots in town. The road is completely flat and takes us past many interesting sights such as the River and other popular bridges of the city. When I cycle this road, I feel like I can see all that the city has to offer without breaking a sweat. The water was still and smooth as glass, reflecting off what little sun came through the trees, boats, and high buildings.

When the weekend arrives, it feels like there is never enough time. So when we get the chance, we take it. We stopped by the riverbank at the foot of the Thuan Phuoc Bridge to take in the view catch the sunset and talk for hours. We share stories about the time during the lockdown, adventures of our past, and plans for the near future: where we will go hiking and camping next,...

My plan is to move to another city for a while when everything is fully opened. However, leaving this wonderful city does not come easily for me. I love its natural beauty with its sandy beaches, sunsets, and breezy shorelines. I feel safe because I know everyone here and I love wandering around Da Nang because the city is so vibrant with food, culture, and places to explore.

Thank you @whynotcamp for taking the video. I love it ❤️
