On the road, yet again...
It shouldn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out where I’m off to next by this picture (taken on the trip last August). LONG damn trip via LA, Taipei, Singapore to Yangon. Time to charge the iPod batteries!
I spend a few days in downtown Yangon for meetings (formerly known as Rangoon) first, then fly to the newly built capital Nay Pyi Taw for two days, then over to a former colonial hill station called Pyin Oo Lwin for a week of meetings, then a few days in Yangon, then back home.
Pyin Oo Lwin, in colonial days, was called Maymyo by the British and is about 70 km from Mandalay. It’s quite a garden spot, and famous for silk production and strawberry fields.

Have a look at www.pyinoolwin.info/aboutpol.htm to see the area and the old British cottages, and I’m staying at www.pyinoolwin.info/RoyalParkView.htm
