So, what happened to January... and February...
Well, after being here for about two months, and starting to get settled in learning our surroundings, we were informed that our jobs would be completely moving to another town nearby (from Rangpur to Gaibandha). After an extremely long wait to find and prepare a house for us to move into, we finally moved into our house on January 7th, after being in temporary housing since we arrived on August 20th. Hence, a very busy month for us and the reason for the lack of time to post anything to this blog during the month of January. Things are still being set up with our new house, but we are at least close to a routine, and close to a vacation.
January has been cool here (in the 50's at night and 70's during the day), often with a thick layer of fog especially in the mornings, which will occaisionally block the sun for days at a time (rather depressing). In February, the warm sun was back, there is no rain and there are clear skies everyday, and the evenings cool off enough to want to sleep with a blanket.
This is where Gaibandha is located
