This is how the leg polers row their boats. This one is loaded with seaweed to make the floating islands.
A stilt house on Inle Lake. The poles are anchoring the floating islands so they don't float away.

Today, February 12, we leave for our second trip around the world. The focus is once again on Asia and Ireland, but mostly the destinations are as yet unexplored. This trip is shorter by three weeks and much less complicated than last year’s, but we are excited nonetheless and I will leave the rest to unfold as we go along. Please note that the earliest posts are at the bottom and the latest posts are at the top. You can go to earlier posts by clicking on the archive date below on the left.
