We flew via Bangkok to Yangon, arrived evening and stayed overnight in Yangon for an early flight to Bagan the next day.  We arrived in our resort in Bagan, Aureum Palace and Hotel, and had lunch in Xanadu Xanadu at Aureum Palace and Hotel (1)

The food was good in the resort.  I remember hotel food to be the best in Myanmar.  They had a wide variety of food to choose from Asian to Continental.  I recommend for you to just eat in the hotel unless you have a restaurant recommendation

 We had a very serious 🙂 meeting with Inés Delgado Prieto of Eastern Crossings Bespoke Travel Adventures for our new adventure!  The last time we were talking to Inés it was for our India Trip and we loved it!!

Previous entry:  Planing For Our Trip to India November 20, 2012

She organizes the trips of the Asia Society and many other families and groups. She warned us that we will be on the move this trip…. In other words, this is not going to be a vacation :-O The Splendor of Myanmar by Eastern Crossings (2)

Love travelling to new places!!

The Splendor of Myanmar by Eastern Crossings (1)

Some tips from Ines – Some additional ones from me 🙂

 Cellphones:  There is already Globe signal in Myanmar

Footwear:  Bring slippers for Bagan Temple hopping and most places in Myanmar – all kinds 🙂  People there just wear slippers because they go in and out of temples and even sometimes in the office they remove their footwear.  It is acceptable to just wear slippers

Wet wipes to wipe your feet since you will be going in and out of temples with no shoes.  Our bus and tour guide provided this but in case bring your own
