Wow, I have been so busy at work (and admittedly, traveling) that I haven’t updated my blog in well over a month. The year is flying by – I leave for Canada in less than two months!
Happy Bengali New Year (1418) to all. The Bangladeshi celebrate New Year’s Day in the early morning (which I much prefer to trying to stay up past midnight). We were invited to a block party in Danmundi. It was quite a celebration. Almost everyone dressed up in red and white. They had set up a stage and had local singers and dancers perform. The event was televised on Bangladeshi TV, and was also filmed by a crew from Canada. They interviewed my friend Stella and her visiting Canadian friend as well. Here are some images of the singers, dancers and crowd.
