Today I am going to present the life of our teashop neighbors.Tea shops are very important part of Burma! People here go

there every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I am going Trishaws which are tools commonly used for transporting things are also going to be meant.

This is Daw Than Than Sein working at her tea shop preparing a sein kyaw a kind of a curry with fried fresh vegetables!

It is commonly matched up with rice to eat. They have 6 sisters who are running this shop.

The common food sold in tea shops are tea, juices, coffee, fried rice, rice and curry, eikyarkoy or nanpyar which is a very common food they enjoy with breakfast tea in Myanmar. In this picture the lady is going to fry frogs for the curry for lunch at the tea shop!

If you walked onto the street of Burma seeing three wheels transportation you ought to know that it is a very common . The three wheels creatures which are known as trishaws are used for transportation because people can rarely afford cars in the country! It is an fun vehicle to ride on!

Not all trishaw drivers own the trishaws. Most of them rent from people who have or own trishaw and the drivers have to pay a percentage.

Wow this is fun

Children in the teashop neighborhood are very good at using natural environment to play. They may use tree to climb on like monkey bars. Girls use leaf and something like dirt or soil to pretend like they are cooking.

Not all things have to be natural for entertainment. The children here also watch TV’s just like us. They also ride around their neighbor hood with bicycles.

There are also some traditional board games that grown up men play in the neighborhood. The games are Zay which is a game where you have to knock out other people‘s chess pieces another game is chess they also play Chin lone.Chin lone is a game like four squares but you have to kick the ball before it drops.
