i was doing so well...and then apparently fell off the wagon...

so here is a barrage of posts with mostly pictures, a quick update on the last two weeks of my life...
Friday May 25th 
some of us teachers were treated to dinner at a local family's house, and then with their daughter (who's a teacher at the best primary/secondary school in Chittagong) we headed to the 'riverside'.
there's a 'beach' nearby (that people don't really swim in), and on the way there's a stone wall protecting the road from rising water...especially during monsoon season, apparently.  we got to hang out for about an hour, looking at the stars and the lights from all the ships on the karnaphuli river, and enjoying the continuous stream of vendors selling spicy hot pieces of crab, peanuts, tea and the like.
