First Week in Dhaka

---

So we have arrived safe and sound in Dhaka! After an extremely long flight we arrived at the airport and were taken straight to our new apartment-which is absolutely huge! We live in a brand new building on a quiet side of town and are quite happy with our new home. As soon as our shipment comes in we will be able to cozy in a bit, but until then we are happily busying ourselves with exploring the city, meeting new people, and getting ready for our new jobs. (We start with kids on Wed.!) Jet lag is still lingering- we are usually up and awake around 4:30AM just in time to hear the citywide call to prayer bellowing from nearby rooftop loudspeakers... or 1 of our 2 neighborhood roosters, who are sometimes just as loud. Gotta love Dhaka =)
