More Dhaka Adventures


       Today was our last day in Dhaka, we leave early tomorrow morning and we are all ready to go back! Since it was our last day and Mrs. Waid basically got everything on her list, today was a ‘fun’ day! We first went to Mrs. Waid’s friend’s shop. Her name is Nyoni and she runs a dentist shop and a woman’s beauty shop, it contains clothes and a salon. Lauren and I each found a shari there. She has some really nice stuff, but it is all expensive, however, she gave us a really good price on the sharis we picked.
       After that we went to Gulshon. Gulshon is where you can find the ‘American’ stuff, like chocolate, oatmeal, etc. We stopped for lunch at a bakery there. They had some tasty looking food in there, but all we got was a veggie patti, which was basically a croissant filled with veggies. It was delicious! We than went to a store where they sell things that are native to Bangladesh, like artwork and such. We each found a little something there to get. After that we were going to go to another shop, but today happened to be the day when all of those shops were closed! We were disappointed, but at the same time, we are ready to go back to the orphanage!
