REMIAN RAIDER heads the ball for a goal. It was disqualified because the corner flag was taken down for the corner kick! 😦
This afternoon the Remian Raiders play in the finals of this tournament against the Josephites.

Nice head shot

Nice head shot
MAHBOOB, the striker in action.
Mabub showed his great style putting the Remian Raider’s only goal into the net with gusto, with the help of Asif. This was not his goal shot, but an earlier shot of him centering the ball. The Raiders finished the game with a 1-1 score requiring a shoot-out. They won the shoot-out so are in the semi-finals his afternoon at the Abohani field in Dhanmondi.

HEAD SHOT following corner kick
The team I coach won their must-win game yesterday 2-1 to qualify for the tournament final matches.

CORNBREAD – Nepali style!
This morning I went to a local hotel (restaurant) and had a great breakfast of bhaji (spicy veg) and nan-ruti (one kind of Bengali bread) for 20 tk (30 cents U.S.D). I decided to show you the cornbread as they fix it in Nepal. This piece of bread, made with corn meal, is hollow. and is quite tasty.

SARA & REGINA, friends we met on the Annapurna trail, at a rest stop between Pokhara and Kathmandu, and again later in Kathmandu.

FATHER’S DAY
Here are the two women who had sons so Austin and I would be Fathers.

ALICE WITH ALETA a friend of ours who is now home in New Zealand for the Summer holidays. Next year she will be teaching Jensen at the Grace International School in Gulshan, Dhaka.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, to my wife, Alice.
Now I am again living with an older woman. I follow close behind her, since I will turn 61 in August!
Here she is having fun with a Nepali lady, likely about all the photos I was taking!

PENCIL TRICKS
I stopped at this boy’s home and gave all the children a pencil. This young lad found many things to do with his pencil. Here he is sticking it up his nose! Little boys are creative aren’t they!

DWELLING ON HILLSIDE ON A TRAIL IN THE ANNAPURNA CIRCUIT.

DRAGONFLY
I spied this dragonfly as we were trekking.

NEPALI LADY
This lady was walking down the path beside where we were taking a break. I had just given some children some pencils. Her and her friend kind of stopped and hung around. Our guide then told me that they also want a pencil. They stayed around awhile and she enjoyed the little butt of a cigarette she had left. It was down to 1/3 inch but when she dropped it, she picked it up and was going to enjoy it to the end!
