Day 10 - January 15, 2008 - Hsipaw to Pyin U Lwin
Took the train from Hsipaw to Pyin U Lwin, crossing the Gokteik Viaduct in daylight; then got front seats in a pickup truck down to Mandalay.
A train pulls in. Vendors jump on.
The Gokteik Viaduct.
Our shared pickup from Pyin U Lwin to Mandalay.
Sun-Ling and John have been traveling the earth since 2008 while blogging, eating vegetarian and vegan, and riding public transportation. We love uphill day hikes, 20th-century architecture, Roman ruins, all bodies of water, local markets, shopping for groceries, aqueducts, miradors, trip planning, blablacar, and more.
