Friday morning saw us dropping Dad off back at the airport for a long days journey
5.5 hours from Dhaka to Dubai
just over 3 hour wait in Dubai
7.5 hours from Dubai to Heathrow
him and his luggage (including jars of pickle) arrived safely.
I think he will have some tales to tell once the jetlag wears off.
Besides the sights and the tastes of the city, the sounds of Dhaka are compelling too, and I will try and make some recordings, the bird that says woo-o in increasing urgency, the sounds of the building sites, the incessant unnecessary car horns, the street hawker selling snacks announced by a conch shell blow, and a rolling brrrr noise. The weather the past two weeks has been incredible - increasingly warm, with a mid-afternoon temperature of 25 in the first days, to 32 in the last - sunny with blue blue skies.
