We took a Tuk-Tuk around the city of Pakokku visited a market, cigar factory, a school and learned about longyis.

Here are our Tuk-Tuk waiting for us.

Jorunn and Martin in their Tuk-Tuk.

Big bridge made in 2012.

Big bridge.

It is very impressive and made in 2012.

United, our meeting point for the market trip.

Martin was stupid enough to give some money to this woman and child, and the beggars lined up to rip Martin off. No dice.

Bamboo shots, very popular food.

Wood for making sun tan lotion and general skin care.

More bamboo shots.

Tamarin paste. Very good with duck.

They can make up to a 1000 cigars each in 11 hours.

We visited a primary school.

They song for us. Watch the video.
