Although I grew up speaking English and Pennsylvania Dutch, I also speak Bangla, though not totally fluent.

My grandson knows I love Cha! I suspect most every day for 7 years, I had at least one cup of cha, while in Bangladesh. At my grandson’s grad party it was being offered as one of the hot drinks! If I would have shut my eyes, I could have imagined myself in Dhaka. It was a similar feeling I had when eating the delightful chicken curry, my daughter-in-law prepared for the party! I confess, I stayed away from the delicious assortment of cookies my dear wife baked, though I indulged in the cheese and meat she so nicely arranged on a plate! And the spicy hot cheese ball was excellent! The loaves of French my wife baked were also a hit, of course with different choices of jam, including strawberry.

My last visit to Cox’s Bazaar Sea Beach for a long time!
Soon I’ll be in the land where coffee is the preferred morning hot drink (U.S.A). But until then I will enjoy my morning cup of “Cha (Milk tea with sugar and sweetened condensed milk) while in Bangladesh!” Yum, Yum! I actually had both coffee and cha this morning and I am ready for the day.

Travel time to the airport was 90 minutes! They arrived at the airport just at Iftar time, so the doors are closed while the people inside are eating their Iftar food. It was special to be able to spend good times with our son and grandson!
Crammed in with the Luggage!
