Inle Shan State Burma 18th January 2020

It may look like a dug-out canoe high and dry in a field but these fields are actually floating on Inle Lake and the boat, like ours, is making its way along a narrow waterway. The fields are anchored into the bottom of the shallow lake by those hundreds of wooden poles.

We had a great time in Burma but little did we realise that it would be the last trip before the covid lockdown. Now we are very pleased to have actually been able to take a holiday in 2020.

Let's hope the recent military coup doesn't lead to any deaths and can be resolved quickly.
