Myanmar
While cycling in the Philippines we met Kjell and Andrea and having swapped email addresses thought nothing more of it. Several months later we received an email from them asking if we would like to join them on a tour to mystical Myanmar. Life is too short to pass up such opportunities and before we knew it the planning was under way.
It would be the first time that we had ever toured with another couple so it was a new experience for us.
Myanmar really is still a wonderful place to visit, although a little more difficult for cycle touring.
Read about some of the issues when travelling there at: Bicycling Magnificent Myanmar
For clarity's sake we have divided our trip account into a number of sections:
- Visiting Yangon
- Lake Inle
- The Taunggyi Fire Balloon Festival
- Lake Inle to Bagan Bicycle Ride
- The Temples and Stupas of Bagan
- Bago Mawlamyine Bicycle Ride

Hi you two intrepid travellers just been catching up with your blog. What an amazing 4 weeks - so different from anything I have ever experienced, I am in awe of your organisational skills ! Xx
Quote: "and took a 50,000 Kyat, ($5) note out of his wallet."
That note doesn't exist in Burma. You mean a 5000kyat note = 5$
Nice blog !
