Tues 30 Dec - Yangon museum & "concrete" barge

Couldn't take photos inside the museum...but the lion throne was very impressive!

Tried to get in to the Karaweik Palace for dinner to watch the cultural show, but was booked out. Instead sat across from the replica "concrete" royal barge on the opposite bank, at what we thought was "mr guitar" restaurant, but actually it had closed down. The true "high point" of the evening was when the waiter brought us our cheese burgers, and we realised that there is a difference to them between cheese burgers and cheese beef burgers! So we landed up with just a cheese sandwich! This low point was also aided by the screeching myanmar music from the barge and a drum test at a stage area being set up behind us...and my upset stomach!

 We ended the evening with tea at Nervin restaurant (with many jokes froms Robyn Hood, Men in Tights) & listening to local live acts in the park,,,thankfully my stomach held out!
