Our chariot...
Went to a place where they make cigars... which I actually enjoyed the star anise one quite a bit.
A few head wraps of some of the villagers...
And smiles...

V-dub! Our awesome boat guide for Inle... |

 |
Kids with their make-shift super soakers |
 |
Another boy part of the super-soaker fun saying hello to us |
At a paper and umbrella making shop...
At a local market...
 |
Some sort of rice chip-like thing, tasty but tough to eat |
The same village as the market specializes in pottery...
 |
The kilns that are buried 6' below ground level |
 |
Readying to leave the market |
 |
BTW, the mud-looking smudges on their faces are traditional for Myanmar as part makeup/sunblock |
 |
Getting out of the local traffic jam |
Went to a place where they make sake... here we are sampling (the water bottles are filled with them)...
 |
Funny thing, our guide drank with us and was a bit stumbling when we left where shortly after that, we ran out of gas. |
 |
Allie and Chris watching the kids play |

We big-big! |

 |
Local fisherman saying HELLO!! |
 |
Perfect demonstration of rowing here with one leg so the hands can fish |
 |
Success!! |
 |
Slapping the water to scare fish into the nets |
 |
Upon arrival at our hotel cottage, we're greeted by the staff playing various percussion instruments - made us feel pretty special! |
 |
Collecting soil for their floating farms |
 |
Beautiful carvings for a door pull |
 |
And sometimes, things don't translate quite the same... |
 |
Goodbye Inle!! We'll miss you!! |
