Trekking from Kalaw to Inlay Lake – Part 2

On the way to work

It is not allowed to cut trees anymore – and did you see a lot left on the pictures?? so now the people build stone houses. Looks not so nice – but much better for the environment. Good thing that they have everything they need in front of the villages. They shred the stone and mix it with water and chalk – leave it overnight and press it the next morning. Than they let it dry for a week or longer – voilà – ready to build walls.

We made it to the lake and go with the boat to the other end. That was a nice 2.5 days tour. Next time I might do this in 4 days to see some more…
