Day 162

A BIG DAY TODAY FOR US and for the FOOTBALL (SOCCER) LOVING FANS.  This morning my son, Austin, and his family left for America after 2 1/2 years working with MCC.  Also tonight is the opening of the WORLD CUP 2010 tournament.  The flags are waving high here in Bangladesh as Bengalis are showing their loyal support for either Brazil or Argentina.  There are a few that would support other countries but they are few.

Yesterday, I took my grandsons to the barber and here they are on the rickshaw that brought us to our apartment.

Pruitt drinking his MoJo, Jensen gazing at the playing field, and Riley grabbing his chin!  Oh, also the rickshaw walla with the perfect pose! 🙂  I would have brightened up the photo more, but I would have lost the walla’s tupi!

SUNSET FROM OUR ROOFTOP:  I wanted to catch this sunset with the sun a little higher in the sky but was a few minutes later than I would have liked.  Here is what awaited me when I arrived on the rooftop.  The mosque is a 4-5 minute walk from our apartment.  I would have loved to have those birds fly between me and the sun!
