Potato Traffic Jam




We are on our way to Mahasthan, a 3rd Century Buddhist Monastery. We hit a traffic jam, farmers taking potatoes to cold storage. We hopped off the bus to take a look.
We then became a spectacle.
There are very few tourists in Bangladesh. We have seen 4 other than our tour group of 16 plus guide.
Surprisingly, there is a high per capita ownership of cell phones in Bangladesh. So as we wandered through the crowd taking pictures, the locals pulled out their cell phones and started taking pictures of us.
