Colorful and interesting Yangon Myanmar is my subject for the Wednesday Walk event by @tattoodjay. This week I'm showing you people walking in this city I fell in love with. Close enough for Jay's non-rules for his non-contest!
These shots are from one of my visa trips which are always too short. Yangon is a place I cannot blink for fear I will miss something I want to see.
This monk with no shoes is going to get into a truck just about to drive up and stop for him.
Traffic on the way to the temple you can barely see moved at a crawl. Much faster to walk.
The man with the bike just got knocked over by a car and now has to reload.
Making rounds.
Carrying your heavy packages on your head is quite normal here.
You cannot tell, but the bus is packed full like all I saw in Yangon.
Very typical.
I liked all the umbrellas in this shot.
And then the view got more interesting.
The yellow bag is on her head, and she is walking fast.
The umbrella is against sun, not rain in this photo.
Water is delivered all day everyday with these heavy carts. The upside down bottles are the empties. Almost every delivery also includes going up and down steep staircases, so these men are really earning their keep.
That's it for this week. I promise myself to actually Go. On. A. Walk. for next week! Let's see if I really do :)
