A Sweet Rose in the Flower Garden!

Day 139

LADY WALKING

The other morning while walking to Banani  I passed this lady.  I stopped to take some photos, she passed me, and then I passed her again.  After that she never quite caught up with me before I moved on after taking a photo of  some street scenes.  She must have wondered about this funny American that is so taken up with the Dhaka scenery.  I think I took 87 photos on that 1.5 hour walk.

One of 7 million ladies in the city of Dhaka.

POTENTIAL WALL ARRANGEMENT

I’m considering this or a similar arrangement for one of the walls of our apartment.  Feel free to make comments  including recommendations.  If I knew how to use this program  🙂  I would have put spaces between each photo and had every other photo up or down.  So it goes! Have a great day! I see that the program when posted put spaces between photos! Hurray!  Of course then I had too many for one line! 

Great Smile

Day 123

BREAKTIME

Taking a break from carrying water?

What are they thinking?

Day 110

WATER

Since we were without water in our apartment building since last evening  I thought this photo from our Easter weekend trip to Joypara would be fitting.

Water! A precious commodity.

LADY

This lady was peering out the window at the foreigners, one of which was wielding a camera!

Caught by the lens.

FRIENDS

Alice finds a friend on a path in Joypara! Maybe she is hunting for the right Bangla word?

Two worlds meet!

Day 100

AFTER DINNER

(L to R) Rehanna, Alice, Dolly (Rehanna’s dau.) and Dustin.

Rehanna and Dolly escorted us to the street to get transportation to travel to our section of the city.  They were so glad that we had come to their home to enjoy a meal, meet the family, and visit.   In this culture relationships are so much more valuable than things.  We are more than glad to help donate clothes, etc. to help families of this housing area to try and get their lives back together after the tragic fire that destroyed many of their homes.  It is blessing that no one lost their life in the fire.  Ten were injured, including one fireman.

Farewells after a nice visit and meal!

Day 99

GRACIOUS HOSTESS

This nice lady, Rehanna, invited us to her home on February 6 to enjoy a great meal of curried chicken and rice, etc.  This week the contents of her home were destroyed by fire.  Her one-room house had a cement floor and brick walls so it will take less to rebuild than many of the homes.

Rehanna, our gracious hostess.
