America - Bangladesh Friendship Day 2013

This past weekend our friend Milky from Cox's Bazaar had a get together for those of us working on the new hospital project and called it "America - Bangladesh Friendship Day".  We each were given hats and t-shirts for this full day event.  Starting with brunch, a beach visit, pool time, late lunch, beach drive and awards. It was fun to get away for the day, although with the contractor there it was not all play, we are still working out some project details. Holly and I won a horse statue at the awards raffle that is now sitting on our mantle in our home. It was funny that a number of people that saw our group were actually asking us if "America - Bangladesh Friendship Day" was an actual thing happening that day. A unique & fun experience.

(Beach time is a bit different from back home, we go put our feet in the water and leave. This seems to be somewhat typical here. The sand was extremely hot when away from the water. Holly brought her soccer ball hoping to play some ball.)
