Our first day in Burma (now Myanmar) we explored Rangoon (now Yangon) on our bike.
Catching the plane from Kuala Kumpur at 7am meant getting up at 3:30am. Thanks Terry & Yati The view of the deltas from the plane was great Our room “CRANK” (note the picture on the wall) at Bike World in Hlaing Township, 6 miles from central Yangon Putting the tandem together with help from the boys at Bike World Street scene And another street scene We went into a bank and there were piles of money on the counter! Sule Paya as we approached it Inside the Sule Paya Gary at the Full tusked Elephant shrine, which is Kate’s sign as she was born Wednesday morning Another view inside the ornate Sule Paya A street parade After being drenched we stopped at a small tea shop to get out of the rain and had sweet tea and steamed dumplings By the time we were riding home it was dark and we accidentally passed the Shwedagon Paya And a final view of the Shwedagon Paya in the distance. this is the bill from the Prome Restaurant. Note a mixture of English and Burmese. And the prices convert at about 840 Kyat to US$1. The tool bill was 22,000 or about $26.
