Myanmar - 08/07/08  - from Sashko

Myanmar is an Asian country close to China, Laos, India, Thailand. Long time ago the country was in British colony. The capital now is Yangon, not exactly - the government changed it to another small city but this is not so popular. When Myanmar was a British colony, the name was changed to Burma. That's why it is not so polite to say 'Burma', even though some people call it like that. Well, in fact the British did a lot of good things, they build beautiful schools, churches, railways and roads. The government of Myanmar is not good at all. The story is long but I will tell you just some main parts. There is a woman which received Nobel prize. She was fighting a lot for peace, on some votes she got 85% but the government didn't let her to have her party in power. She is now in home arrest. It is now military the official government with only a few people (like 5) controlling Myanmar. In fact Myanmar is a very good friend of China which also does not have a good government but better. The two countries trade a lot because Myanmar has a lot of precious stones and other things. The government ONLY take it and sell it for money that go to HIM. The Chinese built a lot of roads but Myanmar government built little roads, very bad. He also built rails but on some parts. Two times a year the train falls from them. The rest of the rails are from the British...

The Atlanta hotel - 10/07/08 - from Sashko

You enter, on your left side is a small restaurant. If you go more straight you will see the reception and the stairs going up. There is also a door in front of you and a garden. You climb up 63 steps, you are on the 4th floor of the 56 years old hotel. There is a room C12 - ours, with 2 small bed and 1 double bad. And then in the garden there is a ... swimming pool! We swam today a few minutes before breakfast. Then a few hours after breakfast. Then another few hours after lunch. And after dinner - jumping and resting in the water in the dark night. First we jumped from 60 cm, then 2m and at the end from 3m high, from the roof of the covered garden.
