Maybe. Would love to see, how Burma is doing today. I’ve been following from the distance how the country is now gradually (hopefully) easing the military dictatorship. It’s a land of immense beauty and lovely people.
Very cool looking and exotic boat ride. If that doesn’t motivate your nature loving readers to visit Burma then I don’t know what will. We’re aware that there’s stuff like that in Kerala, Bangkok, Amsterdam, and Venice, but not Burma, you sure got there at a good time. My guess is that tourism is ready to take off for that land. Oh hey, that pic of the birds, I love trying to capture shots like that. It came out good.
As always thanks Mike! I really did get there at the right time. The Lonely Planet have listed Burma as the No.2 country to visit this year!!! EEEk! I think i had strange expectations of Burma before visiting. When i arrived it blew me away!
Something different, Pinky – thanks! I liked especially the tranquility of the last picture.
I could recognize some of the views I saw there some quarter a century ago: http://wp.me/p1jVlh-eC.
Amazing that you were there then. Maybe little change? Any plans to return Olli?

You might like to check my other Burma posts as well (http://ollilaasanen.wordpress.com/?s=burma) and see if there has been any progess …
I will do so. Burma is truly beautiful, and the people so kind and warm. It was the highlight of a recent eight month trip around Asia.
