Today was the day we had both been waiting for... We were finally heading to Myanmar, we were so excited. I woke up early at six thirty and got up and changed. As we were leaving some stuff at the hostel for a couple of weeks our bags were lovely and light so packing was a breeze.

We headed down to Mrs 'P' for some pork with rice which Laura really enjoyed... unfortunately the stall had run out pork before it got to me so I made do with rice with some of Laura's pork plus the chicken soup. The morning consisted mostly of relaxing and tryin...
