Our Apartment & the school

So we have finally arrived in Dhaka, Bangladesh. This is just a crazy crazy place, it is probably best described as living in nice buildings in a rubbish dump, with millions and millions of people and an equal number of bicycles, rickshaws, cars and trucks.

Our apartment is up on the fifth floor and is really really big for a two bedroom place. The school is really looking after us, and if we want anything we ask and it seems to appear pretty quickly. We even have hot water now, after a cold shower on the first morning.

 This is our apartment building.

 Lounge (No cable yet, but it will happen eventually)
 Living Area

Kitchen.

The school is literally around the corner, although tramping boots are almost necessary as the road (below) is pretty rough.



One of the classrooms and Jems office.
The school, the guard at the gate salutes every time we come and go, both here and at home.

Pictures looking out from our apartment and from the school roof to come in a minute.
