Kachin Tribal Village Trek, Burma/Myanmar - Hiking in the Jungles of Burma

The next morning I leisurely took a warm shower and savored what would be my last clean feeling for over a week. Revitalized, we wasted no time and went for a walk through the Myitkyina market. It was one of the best I have seen anywhere. The range of food and wares was astounding. The harsh sun was blocked by an abundant array of colorful umbrellas covering baskets of food and spices. There were also an a ridiculous number of dead things. Fish, meat and hooves of familiar and unfamiliar animals were plentiful.
