Mount Popa

We wound up later than day at in a spectacular bungalow at the Popa Mountain Resort. The resort is perched on the side of the mountain overlooking Popa Taungkalat – a 2,400 foot tall volcanic plug with a Buddhist monastery on top. We decided against climbing the 777 steps to the top, and instead got a massage.

    Now we’re talking. I was wondering when I’d see photos of animals on theblog. I’m holding my breath for bird photos 🙂

    Those stupid monkees need orthodontics. They’re teeth are shaped like paper ice cream cones!

    The paper cones contain bean sprouts. The monkeys seem to love them. I’m not sure why the local people wrap them up this way.
