Two launches loaded with passengers at Sadargat on the Buriganga near Old Dhaka.

Homeward Bound!

 

I better mention that today is my birthday, so I’m starting my 65th year!

An attempted shot at a self-portrait!

The Driver and I!

As Pastor, it was a privilege to be able to do the baby dedication for Carver!  His family sang a very special song they had written for the occasion.

OUR TEAM DID WIN THE FOOTBALL TOURNAMENT ON SATURDAY EVENING, with Masum scoring a goal in each of the overtime periods!

Shumon

I SPENT SOME TIME WITH SHUMON IN SYHLET ONE EVENING IN MARCH.  I had met him in Dhaka a year ago.

Shumon with me in his home.

OUR GUESTS TOOK THIS PHOTO!

FRUIT STALL

HERE I AM WITH ANOTHER FRUIT STALL OWNER!  They sure know how to arrange their fruit in a pleasing manner.

FRUIT STALL OWNER GLAD TO POSE WITH HIS FOREIGNER FRIEND!

THIS HANDICAPPED MAN CAN BE FOUND DAILY BEGGING AT TOWN HALL BAZAAR.

He wanted my guests to take a photo of him and me.

HERE I AM WITH A MAN WHO ALWAYS GREETS ME WITH A SMILE AS HE SCOOTS AROUND WITH HIS 4-WHEELED "VEHICLE!"

This gentleman wanted his photo taken with these foreigners, probably especially with the lady!  The other fruit sellers tease him by telling me he is a terrorist!  He is a lot of fun.  I’m sure in the days to come he will ask me where his copy of the photo is!

THREE BIG SMILES!

IT WAS A PLEASURE TO SEE MY FRIEND, RUBEL AS WE WERE LEAVING THE MARKET.

Since guests came with cameras I am able to post more photos of myself.  One of the hazards of being the photographer in the family, is fewer photos of myself!

RUBEL AND I! Rubel with a big smile as always! Rubel must have been looking at the wrong camera!

HERE I AM AT MY FAVORITE VEGETABLE STALL!

NOW WHAT WAS WERE THE VEGGIES ON THAT LIST I LEFT AT HOME?
