While we have had many more important and exciting experiences, I feel it necessary to explain the restroom situation (though they aren't called that). Going to pee here is like Russian roulette! It is Myanmar custom to use a hose for wiping and then dry with a tissue and be on your way. Therefore many public places don't have tp and that's a wee bit awkward... With think that party city may have sent their left over white streamers for that purpose haha. Also instead of one long queue everyone waits by the stall they want to use and it's every man for himself! At the mall I think everyone brought their own soap? And the cherry on top are squat pans. Better hope you can crouch low and aim well :) anyways still having fun and love it here! This was a iPod length post but we have LOTS to tell about the people we met, places we stayed and things we did in the past week's tour of the country!
