Inle Lake - Home to Aung San Suu Kyi

I forget to mention during the last blog entry that I had meet up with an English lad whilst applying for my visa in Bangkok and luckily our flight dates matched up so we decided to hit the sights of Burmese together...

The Lake was slightly dissapointing, especially as it took 17 hours on a nasty bus to get there.. as it was low season there were very few tourists and we ended up being hearded round market stalls and shops on our day on the lake.

Highlights included visiting a monestry where the monks have taught cats to jump through hoops in the air & fisherman rowing with their legs
