Day 101

ORANGE

This photo was taken while sitting on a rickshaw in a traffic jam on the way to Pizza Hut.   One of the waiters was a college student I have played soccer with.  He generously gave Alice and I a free cup of coffee.  

Going nowhere fast!

Day 76

FLOWER DECORATION

This nicely decorated car was parked in front of the parliament building.

Newly Married?

Day 48

BEAUTIFUL ROSE

While waiting for the gate to be opened for the football (soccer for Americans) tournament at the French school I walked across the street to look at the plants for sale.  Thought this rose was beautiful.

Day 12

Another fairly normal day in Dhaka.  It’s still dusk and the temp is at 73 degrees F.  I made a visit to the local market.  I ordered three chickens which they took out of a cage, weighed, and then prepared for me while I waited.  I also picked out some nice pieces of beef to take home.  A neighbor stopped for a chicken, so I chatted with him till his chicken was ready.  We then walked home together.  He enjoyed the visit and said he hoped that we would see each other every day till we die.  We inherited a four-burner stove with oven from CAM since their SIDR relief project here is finished.  Today a fellow came and installed it and took out our two burner “chula.”

I also painted the first coat of the main color of paint on a cupboard for the kitchen.  Too late for a before and after photo.
