Mon. Nov. 17

 This afternoon Pannina said she was sick so Christina’s final test is still on hold. 

We decided to go check out the Linear Park in Khulna City https://maps.app.goo.gl/CU73kJeEo7KYCBHz7?g_st=ipc a walk along the River with places to sit and play, but the playground equipment was pretty dilapidated and the park was a bit overgrown, for sure the further down the path we went. The sun was setting as we got to the end of the path and it was quite dark as we walked back but a park security man said he would walk behind us… 

Then we went to Shanto’s for the rest of the evening. This was the 1st time for the rest of the family to see Gentry as only Shanto and Espondant were in church last Fri. Rhidoy was just getting back with Pinky. She’d just spent 5 days back in her village with her family. It was the 1st time she’d been back to her village for a few days by herself since they’d been married last Dec. Shanto picked up some sweets for the evening. The best mishti I’ve had here! A thin crispy fried dough wrapped around and around til it was the size of a doughnut and glazed. Had just a hint of spice like it had been fried in the same oil as something spicy, but it did not detract from the deliciousness😋 The men played carrom. Shotti made and served cha(hot tea) and took turns with holding the baby. But evenings can be a fussy time for Gentry.. so it was not very relaxing for this momma..
