[chuck] in Hukaung Tiger Reserve, Other, Shinlonga, chinlone

Every day after work when we were in Shinlonga, the guys would get together and play chinlone for about an hour before it got dark. Amazing to watch. Certainly one of the most unique and beautiful ball games in the world - and the ball is made out of rattan. [NOTE: I always wondered where they got the energy to do this after working all day; music by Avishai Cohen].
