quiet? in bangladesh?

this past thursday we had YET another holiday (they soon stop occurring so often...unfortunately...but it has been really nice for slowly easing our way into teaching full time). Did you know that May 1st, or May Day, is still celebrated elsewhere in the world? thank goodness for such traditions. so, therefore, we had a fabulous three-day weekend and decided to travel to a missionary hospital, with attached guesthouse, that had been mentioned to us as a great retreat from the cityscape of Chittagong. it was absolutely amazing, we were able to eat some western food (mashed potatoes and roast chicken anyone?) and they had a pool open until 11pm - perfect for night swimming! i will be revisiting this and explaining photographs...but for now...i'm heading back to lesson-planning.
