FRUIT STALL OWNER

This gentleman wanted his photo taken with these foreigners, probably especially with the lady!  The other fruit sellers tease him by telling me he is a terrorist!  He is a lot of fun.  I’m sure in the days to come he will ask me where his copy of the photo is!

THREE BIG SMILES!

IT WAS A PLEASURE TO SEE MY FRIEND, RUBEL AS WE WERE LEAVING THE MARKET.

Since guests came with cameras I am able to post more photos of myself.  One of the hazards of being the photographer in the family, is fewer photos of myself!

RUBEL AND I! Rubel with a big smile as always! Rubel must have been looking at the wrong camera!

HERE I AM AT MY FAVORITE VEGETABLE STALL!

NOW WHAT WAS WERE THE VEGGIES ON THAT LIST I LEFT AT HOME?

HERE IS A LADY WHO QUITE OFTEN TRIES TO CONVINCE ME SHE NEEDS SOME MONEY FOR FOOD OR CLOTHING!

The question is whether to give or not to give!

EKUSHEY FEBRUARY AND INTERNATIONAL MOTHER LANGUAGE DAY.  It is a special day of celebration in Bangladesh (which literally means Bangla Country).   Here I am wearing a punjabi worn by many Bengalis for special occasions.

Note the Bangla script on the sign in the background!

2012 Day 40

LOOKING FOR SARUS CRANE SOUTH OF THE ANG TRAPAENG THMOR RESERVOIR in Cambodia.  The guide said I should wear a long-sleeved shirt. I went to buy the night before going out and I like this white shirt so I bought it, with some hesitation.  He was kind of shocked because it would make it difficult to sneak up on Eld deer or Sarus Crane in a white shirt!  I had a long-sleeved shirt with me to wear for arrival in Bangladesh but thought it too thick for Cambodia.  I also noticed in the morning it was very similar to the guide’s shirt! I put on the driver’s police jacket to help cover the bright white shirt.  So it goes.

WHAT A SPECIAL DAY!  A REUNION WITH OUR FRIEND CAROLYN ESH.  We got together at Jars of Clay, a nice coffee shop near the Russian Market.
