I VISITED SHAKHARI BAZAAR (Hindu St.) in Old Dhaka on  Mahashashti Puja, the first day of Sharodiya Durga Puja.

Anamika Chowdhury (TTLer) checking out an alley in Old Dhaka!

HE SURE WASN’T FAZED WHEN I RAISED MY CAMERA AND TOOK HIS PHOTO!

Probably normal, and not a “bad hair” day!

I LOVE THE BRIGHT RED POLKA DOTTED BORQUE ON THIS CONSERVATIVE BENGALI LADY.

Portrait in Old Dhaka!

DON’T GET IN HIS WAY!

I think he is carrying aluminum cookware!

I CAN IMAGINE THE CONDITION OF THE LUNGS OF THESE WORKERS.

Worker adding cigarette smoke to make sure his lungs are damaged?!?

A VIEW FROM THE OTHER SIDE!

Quiet Street beside Dhaka Jail!

WALKING THROUGH OLD DHAKA.

Older Lady not wanting to breathe fumes or dust!

MAKING ROOM FOR BIGGER AND BETTER!

Sledge Hammer Smashes the Building Section by Section!

SOMETIME IN OUR FIRST YEAR I PICKED UP THIS STICKER AT PIZZA HUT”S CELEBRATION OF 5 YEARS IN BANGLADESH!

I hoped to be able to celebrate 5 years in Bangladesh like Pizza Hut did.

We celebrated by bringing in Chinese food from the Midnight Sun restaurant.

My wish to be in Bangladesh at least five years came true!! Whoopeee!
