We also were only about 15 KM away from the Myanmar (Burma) border. So, on Saturday before we left we went to this market that is located there. Behind Paul and PJ you see the actual border crossing. On the other side is Myanmar.
Because we were at the border there were also a lot of Burmese people walking about. Most of them had gold powder or something on their faces painted in squares. The men also wore sarongs. We only saw three other foreigners there, so you can imagine the excitement of the Thai/Burmese when they saw the boys.They had lots and lots of plants and orchids for sale as well as an aray of different things.
And here I am standing outside a small shop but notice the sign that says Myanmar 1KM and the fat Buddha. As Paul and I looked at the Burmese language we said, "that looks incredibly difficult to read!"
