Well here we are in Bagan our destination and yes we made
it, to the finish line. It has been a truly remarkable journey. In my mind far
more gruelling than the P2P both on you physically and particularly on the
navigators and the cars. It is so surreal to be here after such an arduous
adventure. Many people came by chauffeur driven cars or vans after having been
eliminated due to car failure, 4 members of the entourage will not make it at
all due to serious injuries sustained along the way. Our thoughts and blessings
go out to them with the utmost sincerity. For those of us who have been lucky
enough to make it, feelings of joy and jubilation all around. For me it was
extra special because we did it together, Laurie and I along with a whole lot
of special friends, both old and new. It will take some time too truly reflect
on the whole journey, but I will do my best in the coming days to share more of
with you all.

Part of the original wall around the palace in Mandalay,
unfortunately the Palace doesn't exist anymore, due to man's infatuation with
weapons and war. The wall is 2 Km's long on each side, truly remarkable
