Nyaungshwe and Inle lake

Made it to nyaung shwe today! The cool weather is absolutely delightful!  It's probably in the low 20s. Took an 8 hr air con bus ride from Bagan. This bus ride cost 11000 kyat, and included both pickup and drop off from our guesthouse, making it an absolute steal!!!  In comparison, when we arrived in Bagan (at 4am) the taxi charged us 10000 kyat to get from the bus station to the guesthouse!!!
 The road was pretty windy and I got a lil nauseated. Thank goodness for gravol!!!

As you drive out from Bagan, the scenery becomes very lush and green. Drove past many many mixed fields. They don't seem to do monoculture here. 

Tomorrow we will explore the area more.
