THIS WATER PUMP at the MCC Sacred Mark project in Mymensingh, Bangladesh brings back memories of many years ago. Water is such a necessary part of life. Many people in the world and here in Bangladesh have problems getting enough good water.

HOTEL GREEN IN TOWN HALL MARKET was where my friend and I had a great breakfast of curried beef, bhaji, and nan ruti. Little restaurants are called hotels. Actually this is one of the few that actually has rooms. This photo shows the hotel from across the street. I went back this afternoon to get this photo so you don’t see the action out front making the porotas and nan ruti.
More wrap-up things today, four more morning walks, farewells and Sunday evening at 10 heading for the airport.
A BIG DAY TODAY FOR US and for the FOOTBALL (SOCCER) LOVING FANS. This morning my son, Austin, and his family left for America after 2 1/2 years working with MCC. Also tonight is the opening of the WORLD CUP 2010 tournament. The flags are waving high here in Bangladesh as Bengalis are showing their loyal support for either Brazil or Argentina. There are a few that would support other countries but they are few.
Yesterday, I took my grandsons to the barber and here they are on the rickshaw that brought us to our apartment.
