“MERRY CHRISTMAS ADVANCE” ( The greeting they give here for an early holiday greeting) HERE I AM GETTING READY TO DELIVER COOKIES TO THE other 31 apartments in our building. Since we are leaving for Indonesia on Saturday, we thought we would get this done early. I got many invitations to come in and drink tea, eat snacks, and visit. It was a very enjoyable time. We have very nice neighbors!
SHARMIN wondering what the elephant will do next! I of course couldn’t tell these girls apart. They were a part of the photo club I went to Moulovibazar with to photograph, tea gardens, birds at a haor, and waterfall. It was too late in the season and the waterfalls was barely a trickle so didn’t go see it. Also it was too early to see the Winter birds at the haor, but all in all it was a good trip. I hope to join them for a trip to another haor in Northeastern Bangladesh in February, when many Winter birds will be residing.
TWO LITTLE BENGALI CHILDREN WITH baby goats in a Munshiganj area village. I would have posted pictures of the care packages from America, but a part of those goodies was my repaired camera. The photos I took were with my friend’s camera.
BEAUTIFULLY DRESSED little Bengali girl looking upward!
HERE I AM IN A MUNCHIGANJ village with some young relatives of Halim.

YOUNG BENGALI GIRL. THINKING? Or sad?
HERE I AM TAKING A PRETEND PHOTO OF A dragonfly. It is also not my camera. I just borrowed for this self-portrait. I was surprised later to see this dragonfly passing by, who couldn’t resist joining the photo-op.
THESE ARE NEIGHBORS OF OURS. I think the boys are brothers and the girl is their house helper. It was Korbani Eid and they were watching the sacrifice of the cows.
