Danang Vietnam

This was the main base for the Vietnam war years. I heard that the US sent the US marines in to this area early in the Viet Nam war and they landed on China Beach fully dressed in battle gear only to be greeted by lady's with flowers
Now seems like a sleepy village but almost 500 thousand folks live here now and boy there is building going on big time here and to the south of the city. Huge hotels going in plus lots of Condo's. 

A couple from the states has a project here to help the people that are deaf and have a restaurant that employee's the locals with hearing problems. I went there for my meals a couple of times and got to talk with the manager. They are moving to a new location and should be much better for them. What a great thing to do for the people. If they did not work here there is nothing for them to do and would become a burden on the family.They are teaching them to sign and also how to cook and bake. They also have housing for them.
Went to dinner at China Beach with friends and the place we had dinner at was a seafood restaurant. You figure out what you want to eat by going over to some plastic tubs filled with different seafood items and get to pick which one you want to eat. We are talking fresh.
That reminds me of a sign in Hoi An and the beer was pumped out of a keg by hand and they called it Fresh Beer.
