Hope this is the right place to post this..

Thought some of you might like to see the Mandalay Water festival on the back of a bike with water proof camera.

They say Mandalay has the best Water Festival in Myanmar. This was filmed last Tuesday afternnoon 12th April 2010.

Thanks Fellas..

It was great fun being a part of it..

It is me on the back.. I went there on work for a few days.

All the jobs done, so the customer had his Burmese wife's nephew take me in to Mandalay. About 45 mins away on bumpy roads.

Have to say.. it is a real hard one to decide.. is Laos or Burma poorer.. I think the people in Laos are happier and the power and banking facilities work as expected.. Unlike Burma. Lost power in the domestic airport 3 times while my bag was going through the scanner!
