It was pretty striking to arrive at the park and see a homeless man fast asleep on a bench directly outside the area that was set up as a refugee camp. Internally Displaced Person indeed.

Please keep in mind:
Burma (Myanmar) is ruled by a military junta. In 1990 Aung San Suu Kyi was elected by the people and imprisoned for the next 20 years after the election by the military.
In 2010 a election was staged to keep the military leaders in their current positions. People are starving and are forced to work.
All the pictures you may see in my stream are very onesided, as it is prohibited to take pictures of the military and the police. Also I just do not take pictures of poor people on the streets and there are a lot of very poor people in Burma.
The Burmese people are the nicest people I ever met and should be supported, even if I don´t really know how.
The country needs support. I posted some links to some international organizations helping Burma.
Burma is NOT the usual travel destination! Even if I am avoided all governement fees as far as possible (partly in long hours of bus travel) I still can´t say that I am sure travelling the country helps the people or should be boycotted as proposed by some people.
The government just moved the capital to Naypyidaw. When I saw it from the bus passing it, I had tears in my eyes seeing how the "Generals" collect the money building fancy buildings and streets around them with people starving. I was so shocked that I did not even took a picture...
- Unicef
and of a smaller German organisation (I met one of the responisbles during my trip)
This is an incomplete list, I´ve also seen www.doctorswithoutborders.org and there are others.
Please help, the burmese people need it.
I got the chance to see the dining room without any other visitors and at that time it was a very quite dark room. I just spotted this little cat with the same opinion taking a nap below one of the dining tables.
The turquoise color of the building in the background is very typical for Burma and you see it everywhere.

On our last full day in Burma we took the Circle Line that goes around Yangon. It is basically the life line of yangon enabling the people/farmers to bring there goods into the city. Even if we traveled around quite a lot in Burma it was still nice in the train. It was the slowest train I ever traveled and it took 3 hours for a few miles. In between the train was completely crowed with all different people.
What I realized in the train was that it is hard to draw a line between evil and good. We were placed next to the train guards, officially probably for our safety ;)
They had quite some fun and one of them even had his girlfriend next to him. Even if they belong to the bad government I believe they were no bad people. They are just trying to make some money for there living.
The fish always stinks from the head down. The head has to be cut!

Our tour guide is a nurse and she had just gotten back three weeks ago from a few months in Haiti. She said that this is exactly what the average tent looks like right now for the people who are still living without homes.
The block sitting out front is an example of measurement. In Haiti, the space between tents is only as wide as that block.
An MSF humanitarian affairs officer speaks with two brothers from Somalia who fled the war-torn city of Mogadishu to come to Yemen through the Gulf of Aden on a smuggler’s boat. Boatloads of people routinely arrive on Yemen's southern shores; the majority are Somalis fleeing war and persecution at home. Passengers are often violently abused by the smugglers.

The ppor people in Burma often just do not know what to do with the garbage and handle it like they did for centuries, they throw it behind there houses.
While in the cities some garbage is burnt, you still see it everywhere. Especially on the land its just everywhere - very sad to see.
But the governement will tell you that the millions they make with selling natural gas to Thailand and China is used for such things. I doubt it!

About me:
I enjoy including many types of materials in my work, but seem to favor glass. Abstract art is most pleasing for me to create, though at times my mosaics are representational. My art often reflects the coastal environment in which I live, or it evolves from my poetry. I find it challenging and cathartic to combine these two creative aspects of my brain.

dananner: And a shout out to @arcticfoxhaircolor I tried #afvioletdream today. Blended with 3 years of henna and covered new gray beautifully. I'm going to need a bigger bottle though. 8oz was just enough for the front and crown.
antpruitt: Isn't it November next month, too?
dananner: @antpruitt once a year. That's it. I go back behind the camera on Dec 1.
antpruitt: D'oh!

In the week since the earthquake struck Haiti, so many lives have been lost. The devastation and destruction is overwhelming. But new babies have been born in the past days, and children need water, food, and care. We can help now with the beginnings of Haiti's recovery.
