All things do not go to plan = Myanmar Visa

What you should know if any ones travels to Myanmar is that you need to have a visa before you board your flight - no Visa on arrival. ( which is slightly confusing  as explained below)

So waking up in a Bangkok hotel room with a feeling in the pit of my stomach something not right 4 hours  before we need to board a plane - not good.  Frantic look on the internet and I realized that what visa on arrival means is that you apply for a e-visa on line  then you receive a paper visa on arrival. Lucky for us you could get a visa from the Myanamar embassy in Bangkok.

 So below are some photos taken over 24 hrs that we spent in Bangkok.


 Where is the Myanmar embassy ? That was the first question once I realized that we could get our visa in one day. So  off we go.




Then we all taxied or way to down town Bangkok to the Embassy.  Only about hr later we are out but need to return to collect in the afternoon.





We spent some off our extra time on the river. I wish I could say that it was a relaxing day in Bangkok  - it had its moments.




and  we arrived 24 hrs  later the expected.
