Sunrise reds diffused across the sky through haze, while at low tide, water collected in rivulets and puddles on the flats. It was a fittingly serene, peaceful and colorful setting for another casual and fair day in the deep tropics of boreal wintertime, and a rare chance to look eastward across an arm of the Indian Ocean from an extension of the Malay Peninsula (whose main reach is seen in the form of distant hills). The flip side of the small Railay Peninsula’s isthmus would yield a delightful sunset and twilight that evening.
