As the heat settled upon us this morning, we headed for the river. We had a boat take us to the other side and took a walk along the fields and sand till we got to a fairly open stretch of sandy beach. The boys had a nice long "swim" in the refreshingly cool water. It was actually shallow enough that some boys from the other side walked across and joined our boys in their play. Our boys weren't quite sure about it at first but ended up having a good time. We decided it would be a great way for them to learn some Bangla.
It was so refreshing to be out in the open and relatively left alone, quite unusual for here. I was quite happy just to soak up the sun and the breeze and the quiet (well, as quiet as it can be to have a bunch of boys in the water!). As we set off for home a good while later, Jensen remarked that this was the best Friday ever!
