Some nice pictures from last week








I actually wanted to make sure i could sort the pictures and make some nice comments to accompany them but everything i see on my screen is in Thai and i can make nothing of it. I asked Sandra but she hasn't a clue either so we both consider it more safe to just leave this and go on with it. So, my appologies for the disorder of this entry. But at least you can see some pictures. Of course quite a few pictures of Sandra's parents and Kyaw Kyaw. Me you can find in one of the pcitures we took at Kekku and the woman in black with the colourful headgear was our guide there. She's Pa-O and this is their traditional outfit. We also visited Bagan and Inle Lake that week. And had a stopover in Meikhtila because of the horrible roads we werre faced with. Just to give you an idea i included a picture of a river bed we needed to cross. It was empty and Jet & I wanted to stop the car so we could take a good picture. But both Kyaw Kyaw and the driver said a hasty 'NO'. On the other side they explained why. 2 men we had seen on the other side had told them to hurry since the dam that was very very close by could be opened at any minute. The bassin was too full. Only thing.. the government usually didn't inform people beforehand. You just had to be sure you were out of the way... We were really relieved to hear this story only when we were on the other side. Safe and sound....

Finally a picture of Sandra! Good to see you, even if only on the computer.
