RAMADAN starts in Bangladesh today. It didn’t start yesterday because no one on the moon committee spied the New Moon on Friday evening. I used to read about the many Muslims observing this month of fasting (dawn to dusk) and now I am here and have neighbors and friends who are doing so.

YOUNG COUPLE enjoying themselves while waiting in traffic on a busy Dhaka street near the Dhanmondi Pizza Hut. I walked to Pizza Hut to celebrate my birthday with friends. If figured if I walked I would have more opportunities to get some good photos. I was pleasantly surprised to get a call from a friend in Kansas wishing me a “Happy Birthday” while on my rickshaw ride home.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to myself! This photo of me was taken in 1978!
BREAKFAST AT A LOCAL hotel (restaurant)
This is my Boyd and Wurthmann (for the Ohio folks). At least 2 days a week I come and get a take-out order of 5 servings of dal (spicy beans) 5 servings of bhaji (spicy vegetables and potatoes) and 10 pieces of nan ruti (flat bread). Sometimes for my breakfast I just stop in and order some to eat there. It’s kind of like my Ohio “Boyd and Wurthmann!”
PARTICIPATION TROPHY being received after the final match at the Towne Hall Field Tournament. It was a big event with a band and lots of firecrackers. I was introduced at the opening ceremonies and was with the long line of dignitaries of the Towne Hall Market Committee, etc. to shake the hands of the players of the two teams in the final match. It was a fun evening.
