Girl all dressed up for the Eid ul Fitr holiday in Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Category: Holiday
I was looking for a restaurant that was open on Eid ul Fitr, and I found this tea stand open. The gentleman on the left had recognized me from years ago when I frequented the Town Hall market to purchase meat, veggies, and or fruit, and for my morning breakfast. I had stopped at this tea stand several times in the last weeks, so the other gentleman also remembered me. I had ordered tea, so the gentleman on the left said he would pay for it. The other fellow asked me if I didn’t want something to eat to go with the tea, so I said I would take some. It was a piece of bread that you see in the bags that are hanging at the top of the photo. And when I had finished he said he would also take care of that. I love the Bengali hospitality!!!
Eid Mubarak to all my Muslim friends around the world. After Ramadan, the month of fasting on this Eid holiday most men and boys would head for the mosque for prayers.
Happy Thanksgiving to all you fine folks. I took this photo four years ago, when my dear wife and I went for a walk on Thanksgiving Day. She is again out faithfully walking this morning as I am getting this post ready. Looking forward to a day with family. My prayers go out to the families who are gathering for the first time without a loved one. May they have comfort, and enjoy the many great memories they have of their loved one.
