I was persuaded to do this by my wife. Being of Yorkshire stock it is still quite painful how much we paid but when my time is up I will die a little bit happier after doing this trip. More

Going up in a balloon over Bagan is just brilliant. You have to book a few days in advance and it's expensive, especially in Burma, but it is sooo worth it.
