Pierwszy post - Myanmar - Kalaw to Inle trek
To jest moj pierwszy post w tym forum. Postuje na roznych Photo forums, ale to jest pierwszy dla mnie ktory jest po polsku. Prawie wszystkie zdjecia ktore postuje sa z moich wyjazdow. Podruzowanie jest moja pasja, zreguly podruzuje 3-4 miesiace na rok. Do tej pory bylem w 79 krajach, zajelo mi to mniej wiecej 2.5-3 lata w podruzy. Dosyc duzo z tych krajow odwiedzalem wiecej niz jeden raz.
Mieszkam w California, wyjehalem z Polski jak bylem w szkole podstawowej i mimo tego ze swietnie mowie, prawie wogle nie pisze po polsku, wiec z gory przepraszam za wszystkie moje bledy lub mieszanie czasami slow angielskich. Wszystko na mojej stronie jest opisane po angielsku, wiec tez tutaj bede postowal w tym jezyku. Jezeli jednak ktos by chcial zebym pisal po polsku to sprubuje prztlumaczyc.
W Grudniu/Styczniu pojehalem z moja zona do S.E. Asia na dwa miesiace. Bylem juz tam 5 razy ale dla niej to byl pierwszy wyjazd, wiec chcialem jej pokazac najbardziej ciekawe miejsca. Jednym z moich ulubionych krajow tam jest Myanmar (Burma). Tu sa pare zdjec z Treku ktory tam zrobilismy w Southern Shan State, kopiowane z mojej strony:

These photos are from a 3 day, 67 kilometer trek that Aggie and I went on between the city of Kalaw and Inle Lake. This was one of the highlights of the trip. I will eventually write in a lot more detail about the villages, people, customs, etc (when I find the time).
Old Skoda and sacks of potatos, Kalaw. This car, out of commission for years, must have had a very interesting history....how did a Czech car get to Myanmar anyway?
Local scenery
Hinkhar khone, Palung tribe village
Rail tracks, the concrete reinforcements have to be used to strengthen the tracks. The rail minister stole from the railway budget, instead of the hardwood needed for the tracks, cheap, soft wood was used. It lasted a very short time, and now needs to be replaced in parts by concrete.

Small shrine for offerings to the local Nat. Maynmar has 37 Nat's, or spirits, going back to the old Animistic beliefs. Locals believe a Nat resides in the valley pass between two mountains.
Near the shrine there is a warning for the Ox-cart drivers, "Drive slow, there is a Nat here!"
Monastery at Pae Tu Bauk, a Taung Thu tribe village. With the permission of the chief monk, we spent the night in the main hall of this monastery.
In addition to the 72 year old chief monk, the monastery had only 2 other very young monks. Here they are warming up in front of a fire with their two friends. In the background are our sleeping mats and a small dinner/breakfast table.

During the dry season many people send their water buffaloes to Inle lake for about 4 months. They arrange this with people who live by the lakes, no money is exchanged. The family receiving the buffalo can use it to plow land during this time, but must take care of it and feed it. At the end of the dry season the buffaloes are returned to their original owners and start working on those fields in preparation for the planting of new crops.
Small spider
Woman making coconut pancakes, Indein
Local man showing his protective tattoos, Indein. The tattoo design is different for everyone and depends on what the Astrologist says is lucky/protective.
