this is what happens when too much time has gone by in between blogs, and too many things have happened. you have nothing to write about! if i was dedicated to the blog and wrote about every interesting thing that's happened between the time i got the visa and now, i probably would have added a dozen entries by now. sadly, the only significant thing i can remember is the terrible driving on the road trips we went on after eid!!!
well, eid itself was a lot of fun. not only is all the food exciting after a month of fasting, the whole dressing up and money and meeting family etc is good to look forward to. have to say that i wasn't disappointed with the first dhaka eid experience in five years. i'd post photos, but they're basically of different family members so not going to. instead, i'm posting a photo of one of the longest and magnificent bridges in bangladesh over the jamuna river. we went on a nice day trip to an area close to the bridge (again, crazy bus drivers everywhere...i got a headache from just watching them), and this picture's taken on that trip (cropped the ppl out...hehe). we didn't cross the bridge, but it was a really nice place. trip would have been better had i not gotten the headache! u can actually see a couple of the crazy bus drivers on the bridge if you look closely...hehe.
i've started on a bit of work, but not nearly substantial enough. my field trip is finally scheduled. looking forward to the trip, but again worried about the driving.
lazy few days as it's a long weekend. at least the whole family's been home for the most part.
