Myanmar: Week One - Bagan


The first week in Myanmar (aka Burma) three of us traveled north to Bagan. They have old temples up there which people compare to the Angkor Temples in Cambodia. We had no choice but to hire a private guide/driver because the buses were all booked full on short notice. But this turned out great as we got a lot more out of the trip because our driver was terrific. He gave us a lot of insight in many areas, and as we did not have to make any of the nitty gritty plans, the 5 days were relaxingly smooth.
