We arrived in Yangon on the 23rd of December and had the chance to share in a “Christmas Eve Party” at Court & Susan’s house, especially for their neighbors and staff. Ron gave a brief devotional at the event and one of Susan’s assistants, Julia, did a fine job as “MC” for the party. Christmas Day included a combined worship service and a very nice dinner for the four of us at a downtown hotel. Tea Shops in Yangon were delightful,
and of course we visited the famous Shwedagon Pagoda (pictured at beginning of "Christmas in Myanmar" posting). To prepare for the rest of our travels we exchanged currency at the rate of $1 to 1000 Kyat (pronounced “jet”), so immediately we had the equivalent of 800 $1 bills to carry around! - rw

is it my imagination, or did you put that picture up twice of ya'll at the restaurant? i feel like i've seen it before.
N's: How perceptive you are! Yes, we goofed and used that picture twice -- once in the very first post we made on the trip. - Dad
So, N's, thanks to you, the post is now corrected! - Dad
I really, really love that picture of the green water taken from underneath a bridge or pier. How beautiful.
