The whole focus of heading to Inle lake is to explore life on the lake, so I took a boat with drivers for the day and I have to say it was one if the best travelling days ever!!! The river is fascinating, teaming with bird life, amazing fishermen, using the same fishing methods to fish as they would have hundreds if years ago. There are temples, towns, markets and newly opened restaurants all round the lake and you could be here for days discovering all that is to explore,, but the usual room supply and demand has meant that I only have two night, but I am amazed that mrs Jasmine in Mandalay even managed this!!!!
So after a day of getting on and off the narrow boat and sitting in the sunlight, we were all knackered and needed to be revived by a cold beer and beautiful sunset!!! The next day we headed to a local market on the nearby shore line and then checked into a guest house in town and biked up to the local vineyard to have a wine tasting session and watch sunset over the lake from the hills - stunning!!!
