A woman preparing a kind of crispy crêpe or pancake. Tasted salty and is very light.

Yay! Geaux Ing!

I was wondering about that stance too.

And of course I had heard of the practice of neck-stretching among the Padaung women, but didn't realize that they still practice it. The neck muscles become so attenuated that without the support of the rings they can no longer hold their heads up and would possibly asphyxiate.

I mentioned this in my third post on page 1 of this thread, Conny.

And if you scroll up on this page, in the wikipedia link to "Inlé lake" it is explained.

Much better than I could do.

I quote from the Wikipedia article:


"Most transportation on the lake is traditionally by small boats, or by somewhat larger boats fitted with single cylinder inboard diesel engines. Local fishermen are known for practicing a distinctive rowing style which involves standing at the stern on one leg and wrapping the other leg around the oar. This unique style evolved for the reason that the lake is covered by reeds and floating plants making it difficult to see above them while sitting. Standing provides the rower with a view beyond the reeds. However, the leg rowing style is only practiced by the men. Women row in the customary style, using the oar with their hands, sitting cross legged at the stern."

Also, the same article shows on a map where this lake is situated.
