The Pandaw II was our home on the Irrawaddy River for six days. We began our trip south from Bhamo, a village only 20 miles from the China border.

All rooms opened to the outside decks.

Cabins were comfortable and accommodating.

Top deck with light refreshment always available behind the bridge

Our first of several lovely sunrises, taken by Nancy on the deck outside our room as Bruce sawed more wood.

Much of the land along the river is arable.

Even sand bar islands are inhabited.
