I SAW THIS VW BUG IN SYHLET, BANGLADESH WHICH brought back many memories of my teenage years. This was a very popular vehicle in America in the 60s.

TODAY WE TOOK THE TRAIN FROM DHAKA TO SYHLET, Bangladesh. It took 7 hours and 20 minutes. The train started 2 minutes behind schedule. This is a much better experience than some have been in the past. We will spend some time here and then go on to Cherrapungee Holiday Resort in India for several days before returning to Dhaka. We were ready for a vacation and it was time to leave the country because of our 90 day multiple-entry visas.
We didn’t ride first class but we surely didn’t ride on the roof like these fellows!

MYMENSINGH TRAIN STATION sign in Mymensingh, Bangladesh. I had to put some Bangla script on my site today, since today I’m doing a Bangla dictation assessment. Passing grade is 70%. They will read approximately 100 words to me in Bangla and I need to write the words of the story down. Points are taken off for spelling errors and for listening errors! I’ll do my best and hopefully that will be good enough.
