Circle the Lake

Last day in Yangon before heading to Bagan for the study tour up north.

Stefan, Daniel and I took a taxi to a local youth center Stefan had visited in January on his first trip to Myanmar. Unfortunately no one was there for the afternoon worship service. Instead we took a drive around Kandawgyi Lake stopping for snacks and drinks at Kandawgyi Hotel. Much of the area around the lake is a picturesque part of Bogyoke Park. We were afforded a lovely view of monsoon rain from the hotel restaurant while a few people were soaked trying to cross the bridges over the lake. Later on we met Joseph and Tin Tin for dinner at Mr. Bar-B-Que for some of the most deliciously grilled meats and veggies I’ve ever had. The late night does not bode well for an early morning departure to Bagan.
