Pictures of my time in Myanmar


Our driver, Charlie, Htet's friend, and Htet!

My Balloon Basket + Friends!

Row boat ride across the river at sunset
Sunset views in Mandalay, Burma


Monks take time to explore too!

Clay pots made in a village along the river
They sell for $2 USD

The most spectacular hotel view!

Market streets in Yangon

Apartments and street shops in Yangon, Myanmar

The view as we landed in a hot air balloon in Bagan, Myanmar

The golden pagoda is the most famous in Yangon, Myanmar

I read about Myanmar economy, government politics, and world news

We flew from Yangon to Mandalay

Young girls at a Monastery ready for their lunch precession

During the precession, each girl takes off her sandals
and quickly & quietly arranges them like this

Matching the pagoda

Weaving using big machines and a lot of technical skills

A scarf in the making

Fun pants for a fun morning flying high in the sky

The sky was filled with hot air balloons

That sand dune is where we landed, literally
We landed at a 70 degree angle in a sand bank and had to be lifted again to navigate to higher ground

School children showing off their stickers at a Monastery that has approx 10 boys who live there 
Hundreds of neighborhood children who attend school there every day


He asked to take a picture with me
And then put his arm around me
My guide told him "no!"
And this is the picture we took!
