Hi All,
I have finally finished the last of 29 blog entries covering our long family trip in July/August.
Entries cover Yangon, Bagan, Monywa, Mandalay, Pyin oo Lwin, Hsipaw, Kengtung (Kyaing Tong), Pinaya and Inle. I have tried to give as many tips and as much advice as possible to help readers.
The first blog entry is here:http://travelwithkidz.quivertreeworld.com/2011/08/29/visiting-myanmarburma-with-kids-where-why-preparations/
You can navigate to all the other entries from there.
Email me directly if you have any questions.
Enjoy!

Amazing journey! Your logical answers to some of the challenges of Burma are appreciated . I've wondered what else is available besides deep fried foods ... afraid of the heart burn that follows repeated greasy meals. Asking for Shan cuisine is a good tip.
Enjoyed reading about your choices for less popular modes of transport for this ambitious itinerary. "Getting there" can be a most memorable part of a trip, if not always the most "enjoyable". I bet your kids won't forget that long loud boat trip.
Loved your report. We are leaving in five weeks (from Vancouver Island) and looking forward to it. Only going for 18 days however, you had a great long trip there. We are also staying at the Bagan Princess and using Minthu so glad to hear you liked both.
Great to hear about the good resteraunts too will definately look those us.
I spent a couple of hours resding your blog. It is very well written and filled with really great information. Thanks for posting.
