According to VietNamNet reporters, the weather in Thanh Hoa has started to get hot. This evening (March 31), thousands of people came to Sam Son beach to cool off.

The businesses have not opened yet so customers come to swim and eat right on the beach. Customers' motorbikes and cars are left on the sidewalk with no one watching.

Mr. Luu Van Nam (Thanh Hoa City) said that his house is about 15km from Sam Son beach. Today, the weather is hot, so he took his wife and children to the beach to play and cool off. Since there was no place to eat or drink, his family returned home right after finishing swimming.
