Mom and Leah Smoking a Cheroot

On our trip to Myanmar in October, we watched local girls hand rolling Cheroots - Myanmar cigars that many of the men there smoke. The girls can roll about 1,000 cigars each day, and get paid depending on how many they roll. There is a short clip below of a girl rolling the charoute. The girls gave us a charoute as a 'souvenir'. Mom tried it - and so did Leah! I was too wimpy, and I'm glad I didn't, because neither one of them liked it very much.

Just wanted to post these videos to share the experience with you. It was very funny to watch Leah take her puff!
