Yesterday we took the new teacher's around town. We started of in a very Myanmar way. Breakfast in a teashop. For some it was their first taste of Mohingha, the most Myanmar of dishes and one that every teashop serves.
We saw a few pagoda's, the big reclining buddha in Yangon and even the recently opened for real Bogyoke Aung San Museum.It was great fun and very interesting. Especially Aung San's museum. It is small but we all considered it the highlight of the day. They even have his service car tucked away in a tiny shed. I wanted to post some pictures here but my card reader is refusing to help me out. I will post them soon.
After lunch we went to Bogyoke Aung San Market for a quick look around. It is a market best visited by oneself since there is so much to see. We rounded of the day by visiting a long-established but still to many people unknown DVD-shop where you can spend a lot of money on DVD's you always wanted to have but never found before. I drooled over a box-set of Star Trek and I couldn't resist Lassie and The Muppets in space.
