Ah me balo achee (I'm fine) we've been out of wifi range for some time now but we are back in Dhaka for the rest of the trip.

Unfortunately everything here is late and hence rushed, so there is no time to plan out something and then do it. An example we have only once shown our PowerPoint and frankly they were not much interested in it so we decided on to not use it even at the District Conference. In this country those pics seem a bit superfluous. They want to hear what we think about their country and the connections we have made, period, so that is what we give them.

This is a great team. They all think on their feet, they give thoughtful and spontaneous speeches. It has worked better than I could have imagined. The team is a perfect blending of strengths and
characteristics. Perhaps this is because of the destination, only certain "types" would want to come, it's also amazing that we picked these four as this trip would blow away even many older and more seasoned travelers. I've taken and gone with groups to India for those ten to twelve day short trips, but thirty days here is a challenge.

We are anticipating the end soon but with melancholy. We will miss our team, we will miss our hosts and we will miss Bangladesh. It has been an experience that we always take with us. Alhamdu lililah and thanks to Rotary
