So, we spend the day on the airplane. We left Washington DC at 8:30am, went to NYC, left for a 12 HOUR flight! The airplane (Emirates Airline) had awesom food and drinks,TVs for each person with free movies (I watched Inception, Paranormal Activity 2, Social Networking), music, we could watch the front and down view of the airplane, and my Dad and me spared no time using it all!!!!



Sooooooooooo excited there is a Starbuckssss. Fail. None of the drinks I like just the coffee and hot tea, which sucks because I thought Starbucks was the same everywhere.So, I hung my head the rest of the time we were there. Dad bought frappachinos, but that wasn't the same and I didn't drink mine (I still owe him for it since I didn't drink it).
Dhaka? It is kinda smelly and filled with mosquitos at the airport. No bag for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dad's bag came, but mine was missing. It took us forever just to get someone to say yes ur bag is missing. So they said they would send it IF they found it.
When we went outside, where it was kinda hot and really humid, many people asked if we needed a taxi, and we said no thank you a billion times since we already had a ride. Horror, Horror, more Horror and aaaaaaaauuuuuuuuugggggggghhhhhhhh! The ride from the airport was the scariest driving experience ever in my life ever, even with my Dad's driving. Cars everywhere. People ignored that there were three lanes marked and just drove anyway they wanted sometimes there were four lines of cars in three lanes and sometimes five!!!!!!! No lights to stop traffic and people just darting out between the traffic!
Honking and honking and honking and our driver did it ALL THE WAY two hours to Savar, even in the rural areas where the roads are so narrow only one car can go and everyone walks on it. Oh yeah and the rickshaws and the CNG (like covered motorcycles that run on compressed natural gas) that hogged the road and almost got run over always.
Cars were flooded around each other and people flooded around the cars, and basically all you could see outside the car in the dark were headlights getting bigger and bigger toward you, and the shrill sound of honking hornes, TERRIFYING!!! It was night when we got to the dorms, not as bad as I thought because we had a bathroom and air conditioning. After all that, all we did was pass out.
