This is a video tour of our house in Gaibandha for those of you who have not been able to come and see it.

A Solar Eclipse in Bangladesh

Well, if you weren't in Asia yesterday, you missed one of the seven total solar eclipses expected to occur this decade--only one more left next year in South America. Where we were standing in Gaibandha, the eclipse did not appear to be quite total, at least as far as we could tell, but we did not exactly have ideal viewing conditions. The partly cloudy viewing however, did make for an interesting photograph you can see below.



Omen? Given their mathematical predictability, I don't think anyone could consider eclipses as omens, but this was the same day that Emily left our home here to travel to Dhaka on her way back to the US. I'm sure if Ezra could say her name, he'd be asking about her, but we'll just have to wait for that.
