Day Eighteen: Rice patties and Cockroaches

Day 18 February 8th, 2009

The Bangladesh countryside is full of green and water. Rice patties create a patchwork of green with borders of palms and banana plants. The degree of infrastructure however is not what a country the size of an American state with a population of 30 million is not what it should be. One of the busiest roads, from Dhaka to Chittagong is a two lane road that has to accommodate all traffic including rickshaws, passenger buses, truck and all vehicles.
Dinner was had at the hotel that we stayed in for the night, the highlight of the meal was a New York sized cockroach.
