Myanmar

One tends to forget when they are over 40 that flying to another country, walking around in the heat for 17 hours, having 4 hours sleep then flying to another country makes one a wee bit tired! We arrived in Yangon at 8.30am this morning and hit the ground running again.

Thankfully the person I booked all our accommodation and guides through was waiting for us at the airport, phew.... The sign even read 'Heidi Maree Clark', just in case there was another strange white person that had a similar name. In fact there was only 1 other 'white' foreigner on our flight. The strangest thing happened before we left KL. A young girl approached us and advised us that they probably wouldn't allow us to enter Myanmar as they are not letting foreign tourists in today? We however must have been the exception........ hmmmmmmm We also meet up with another couple of friends who flew in yesterday from Melbourne, Damien and Lucy. They have now joined our merry gang.

I haven't a clue what we looked at today. There were lots of bright shiny things, colourful food and the craziness of an Asian city. Hopefully after a good nights sleep I will be coherent tomorrow. I did manage to stand on my sunglasses, bummer, however the lovely door men at our very strange hotel found some glue and did a pretty descent repair job for me - yay.
