Heading for Burma/Myanmar!

Hi guys! I'm in the Bangkok airport ready to leave Thailand after 3 days here. Flying to Yangon (previous capital of Burma). No plans yet but hope to meet up with someone who is involved in the modernization of Myanmar and this city in particular. She is spearheading an effort to use sustainable building practices in the restoration of buildings and neighborhoods with an emphasis on reuse of materials including teak wood coming out of demolished sites. After we spend some time in Yangon the plan is to travel north toward Mandalay, do a ton of temple visits, meditation and unguided yoga. The shot below is a live camera screen in Don mueng airport which puts you into an intersection of what appears to be Time Square.  I couldn't resist being part of it with my (sadly enough) Starbucks Chai tea. In case the wifi is as scarce as I expect it to be in Myanmar this is a holiday wish for a safe,beautiful  and peaceful season! Love to you allπŸŽ…πŸŽ„!
