How I got there: Silk Air from Changi to Yangon, walk from the International terminal to the Domestic terminal, Find Air Mandalay and purchase my continuing ticket (no credit cards in Myanmar - so no Internet purchase of airline tickets) - then Air Mandalay to Heho, then car from Heho to Inle Lake.

It was quite a day getting here - leaving home at 5:45, catching the 7:55 flight to Yangon - then a 5 hour wait for the Air Mandalay flight - then driving from Heho to Inle Lake (about an hour). All together - 12 hour travel time but once I got to Inle Resort, I was suddenly aware the that trip was worth the pain.
