INGRID MILLER AND I STANDING with the photo of mine that accepted to be a part of the TTL “Bangladesh in Frames III” exhibit at Drik Gallery, in Dhanmondi, Dhaka, Bangladesh from March 25-29. Ingrid is a friend and physio therapist who met me at the gallery to show me how to properly get up on a rickshaw and down. She was expecting me to arrive on a CNG, so was surprised to see me on a rickshaw before she taught me how. I did confess that I had already gotten up on a rickshaw, went to the vegetable market to buy veggies, and came home and got off the rickshaw. We tried several methods but she admitted that the way I was doing was probably the best way. I suspect in physiotherapy schools they don’t teach techniques on how to get up on a rickshaw unless the school would be CRP in Savar, Bangladesh!! Actually it was my wife’s good idea on how to get into a microbus (van), which she gave me yesterday on our trip to the India border. Ingrid also helped assist and give me ideas as I negotiated the steps to the different galleries at Drik. Notice the shirt which I received as a gift because one of my photos was accepted!

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.
