Inle Lake
It is now Monday evening and have become tourists. Bright and early this morning, we caught another plane and are now in the mid-northern part of Myanmar on a huge inland lake. We are staying in a hotel on stilts in the Shan tribal territory.
We all jumped in what resembles dragon boats (after a plane and bus ride) and were ferried 1.5 hours across Inle Lake. Whole communities live on this lake. They fish and garden hydroponically and live in houses on stilts.
We feel we've all died and gone to heaven; it feels so otherworldly. We're travelling as a company of 6 Canadians, 5 Aussies, 2 Singaporeans and 1 American. Making new friends and having great fun.
TTFN. It is only 8:15 but I've already fallen asleep at the keyboard.
