Starting today, I am returning to Dhaka.<\/p>\n<p>I managed to find an almost south-west bearing rout through the town of Pakundia and past Kapasia on pleasant roads. From the latter it was an interesting ride through a streched-out village-like area covered entirely with trees, between which people had built their houses. I followed foot paths at first, which then turned into a narrow asphalted road which eventually brought me to Gazipur.<\/p>\n<p>Here it was, again, difficult to make myself understood. My asking for a hotel made people direct me to a restaurant. When I found a hotel of some sort, the clerk refused to let me sleep there. I think he was concerned it was not suitable for me. All my assurances that I didn&#8217;t care about the place&#8217;s comfort didn&#8217;t help. Finally I was directed to a place that, once more, was quite expensive, but did offer some &#8216;modern&#8217; comfort.<\/p>\n<p>Cycled: 81km<\/p>\n<div class=\"rl-gallery-container \" id=\"rl-gallery-container-1\" data-gallery_id=\"0\"> <div class=\"rl-gallery rl-basicmasonry-gallery \" id=\"rl-gallery-1\" data-gallery_no=\"1\"> <div class=\"rl-gutter-sizer\"><\/div><div class=\"rl-grid-sizer\"><\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item rl-gallery-item-width-4\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5983-e1396648820872.jpg\" title=\"Unexpected sight\" data-rl_title=\"Unexpected sight\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5983-e1396648820872-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Unexpected sight\" \/><span class=\"rl-gallery-caption\"><span class=\"rl-gallery-item-title\">Unexpected sight<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5990.jpg\" title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5990-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5992.jpg\" title=\"Bloody speed bumps!\" data-rl_title=\"Bloody speed bumps!\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5992-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" alt=\"Bloody speed bumps!\" \/><span class=\"rl-gallery-caption\"><span class=\"rl-gallery-item-title\">Bloody speed bumps!<\/span><\/span><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"rl-gallery-item\" > <div class=\"rl-gallery-item-content\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5996.jpg\" title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/onmytodd.org\/wp-uploads\/2014\/03\/IMG_5996-300x225.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The trip is slowly coming to an end.
