Good Bengali hospitality, generally means serving a cup of tea!

Boats waiting on the shore of the Brahmaputra River, either to ferry people across to the village, or to give rides up and down the river!

Bengali village milkman carrying milk down the brick path to the market!

I missed photos of the first two milkmen, so I asked this gentleman to pose for me, so I would not just have a photo of a man carrying a red bucket! I was actually served some warm milk and a boiled chicken egg as a snack just before we left this Bikrampur village.

Thinking of you, Anna, as I was walking through Dhaka, Bangladesh!

Today it’s back to normalcy, if there is such a thing for those of us in the “Golden Years!” By the time you see this post we will hopefully be in our own bed, trying to recover from a “door to door” 42 hour trip home. This did include early trip to airport, because of some election day travel restrictions, and a 7 hr. layover in Boston! Not sure how much cold and snow we missed, during the month of February, but we sure enjoyed the balmy temps of Bangladesh!

Enjoying a walk in the village! Soon, back to a colder climate, etc.

This photo taken with the Nikon P1000 at 467 mm. I did edit it with the “dehaze” slider in Lightroom and cropped it, as well.
