March 23 - Ayeyarwady River -> Katha - Should arrive today. When we bought tickets they said 24 hours on the boat one night. Now we are do to arrive tonight just before dusk. Melodie played with the kids on the boat. It seems people are starting to warm up to us. Still they stare. Even if you stare back. Boat broke down one town from Katha. Took a few hours to worked out the problem. Happily on land we looked for a guest house and realised the local police have rigged the pricing for foreigners at 10$ a night. We checked in at the best looking one and explored the small town. Chinese and Nepalese influenced.
