I couldn’t resist taking another sunset shot at this location. I’m almost sure I took a shot here three weeks ago and likely a year ago as well. I love this flood plain for sunset photos.

I HEARD MUSIC AND ANNOUNCEMENTS THE SECOND DAY SO I RETURNED TO THE VILLAGE TO SEE THE BOLI KHELA. This time there were young men wrestling, so the information I had at first was accurate. They must have decided to also add some bull fighting to give the two day festival some variety. Here is a description of the Boli Khela: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boli_Khela
Boli Khela (or Bali Khela) (Bengali: বলীখেলা) is a traditional form of wrestling in Bangladesh, particularly popular in the Chittagong area. Boli means a powerful person in Bengali, while Khela denotes a game. It is particularly played in the month of Chaitra (March-April in the Bangla Calendar).[1] A festival usually takes place on the 25th of April in the port city Chittagong at the Laldighi Maidan attracts thousands of supporters each year.
