Kraburi Kayak Tour, Thailand 2024

Day 4: Kawthaung Sightseeing

 

14 November Mingalar Boutique Hotel, Kawthaung, Myanmar
Hot sweaty morning with mostly sun and usual haze. Partly cloudy afternoon. My included breakfast was 2 fried eggs, toast, 2 little plates of sticky rice sweets and 2 watermelon cubes. Chris led us on a walking tour through old town with a visit to a packed temple with kathin offerings and food. Then to statue-packed Pyi Daw Aye Pagoda with mirrored chedi interior. We walked through a market with gold and other shops. Then aling shore and up park hill to statue of king at BayintNaung Land. Then lunch of oily small plates of Burmese food at local restaurant. I liked the pumpkin egg dish plus Thai tea and mango shake.

Songtaew back to hotel, rain shower bath. In afternoon we took a pair of three wheelers to Pulau Ton Ton and Palautonetone Beach on west coast. Had a fizzy coconut. Then to nearby Victoria Cliff Hotel & Resorts for snacks and drinks. I had a chocolate cake and cold green milk tea. Nice view and landscaping. Afternoon felt restful after hot morning walk. At hotel I had vegetable tempura and French fries.

On to Day 5
