Walking through Yangon, here is what you find.
Crabs, claws sold separately. Likely partially precooked in the heat.
Brooms.
Mangosteen.
Bananas are sold by people wearing Burmese makeup, thanaka.
Birdhouses outside the market provide decorative, if confusing, interest.
Buckets of everything that you could need.

Lesser-known Evils
This is my favourite picture of the week, which I call The evil of filing.
Next, just some pictures of our neighbourhood haunted house.
How about: Ancient Muslim graveyard at night. Scary, no?
If that didn't work, then let's ponder these happy and photogenic kayakers.
Here is the sludgebuster and the yuck of the water they're paddling in! Now you have fear.
Finally, this is Frankenbuilding. Seen in Sydney, it's modern condos grafted onto an ancient church. It may also eat children, just sayin'.

Quick Trip South
We kept busy this weekend doing mirror photography and contemplating architecture.
But guess where we went 2 weeks ago. Hint: There was Lebanese food.
There were large burgers made out of questionable meat.
And if you go to a wedding, you can wear a fascinator as shown above.
Such is the way of a wedding in Australia.
Even the French McDonalds has no worries.
