Where is Mr. Dunn?

Today was amazing!

The organizaiton of RELIEF International Schools Online is truly doing an amazing job in Bangladesh. They are bringing 21st century technology and skills into places where it is desperately needed.

We are in the city of Comilla. It is a smaller city, but it still has an amazing amount of activities and energy.

We visited a historical site where we saw the remains of a Bhudist temple that was built in the 7th century. Bangladesh has had many influences and many religions, and people have occupied its land. Today more than half of the country is Muslim, but they also have Hindu and other religions represented.

I think that because of their past and having all of these influences, that is why they are so accepting of other people and differences. In many ways, Bangldesh is more accepting of others than even many of the more "modern" countries.

Today we visited many schools where we were meet with arms open and young people (many of whom are just like you and I) excited to learn and share what they know with you.


In the afternoon we went to a girls' school, and they performed for us some traditional song and dances.


Let me just say that it was amazing! These girls had worked very hard to put on this program for us. They were also dressed in traditional dress, and as you can see in the picture, they looked very nice.


(I am in a Lungi. This is a true Bangladesh custom for the men to wear one. It is a wrap that goes aroud your waist and covers your legs. It is sooooo comfertable)
