TEA STALL OWNER PREPARING ME A CUP OF TEA. His stand is 50 yards from Jeremy’s apartment, and half way between us and Charles’ place! Sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and some tea are created to make this great drink. Maybe 3 oz. for 6 cents! It’s a rare day that I don’t have a cup of tea. He is wearing a lungi, which is typically what I wear most days at home in the apartment. They are quite comfortable during these 90+ degrees days!
LADY IN BANGLADESH WAITING to load up another basket with dirt being excavated for a ditch. You can see a photo of her helping another lady lift the load in Day 122.
THIS SCHOOL GUARD REALLY WANTED HIS PHOTO TAKEN. He had seen me taking photos of the construction outside Charles’ apartment building, and came out requesting I take his photo. Charles said he saw him coming out making sure his hat was on properly for the photo.
DITCH DIGGING FOREMAN! This fellow was motioning to me that he wanted some money to buy some food with. Even though he has a job he thought maybe I would help him out!
BENGALI WOMEN WORKING ON CREW to excavate a ditch. With Mother’s Day coming soon, I’m sure many people would be glad their Mother didn’t have to have this kind of job. It is commendable that they are working and not begging! I suspect there were days my Mother worked this hard!
LADY IN BANGLADESH ON A CREW THAT IS EXCAVATING FOR some drainage pipes. She hauls dirt in a basket on her head to another location.
