The road to Mandalay
Myanmar! Shrouded in mystery, hidden for decades behind a shadowy steel curtain of tyranny! The land that time forgot! The last nation untouched by the corrupting influence of the West! Right?
Yeah, not so much.
It is a fascinating place, though. Still deeply culturally independent,
and still more economically influenced by China than by the West, though that's changing fast.
It's also quite a visually extraordinary place.
Especially in Bagan, land of ten thousand temples (once literally):
Spot the Buddha!
I took, at a conservative estimate, approximately nineteen zillion pictures, of which these are but a sample. More to come.

Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically
tweet my newest twitter updates. I've been looking for a plug-in like
this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
Please let me know if you run into anything.
I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.
