I had my first rickshaw ride today. Forty taka for a twenty minute ride from Gulshan Two to Our House on Lane 5, DOHS. Our driver was amazing. He hardly sat down at all, which is good since his seat was only attached on one side.
Mom also bought her first shalwar kameez today. It’s a long shirt with really loose pants. Actually, I think she could fit about three of her in the waistband of the pants before she cinches them up. The remind me of chef pants. The outfit also comes with an orna, or long scarf. That’s my favorite part because I can chew on it whenever she’s carrying me.
Now I'm just spending some play time in Mom and Dad's bedroom because it is the only room with a working air conditioner. You can see the mosquito net and Dad reading behind me.
This is Lane 5, our street, at 5:30 AM, before all the rickshaws are out.
You look good in the shalway kameez. :-) Is it cooler at all?
ReplyDeleteMom says the shalwar kameez is slightly cooler, but she has yet to test it for a full day.
