My Favourite Destination - By Kanineeka Chatterjee

 My father transferred from Sri Lanka to Bangladesh. Now he stays in Bangladesh. Sometimes he comes to Kolkata and stays with us.  That is why during my summer vacation, I go to Bangladesh with my mother.

 

I anxiously wait for the summer vacation so that I can spend time with my father. I love going to Bangladesh because of the culture there.  Everyone is very friendly & they respect their own language.

 

An incident took place when I went to the airport and wished the immigration officer ‘Good Morning’.  She replied back to me by saying ‘Suprabath’. She then explained that she knows English but prefers using her mother tongue. Later when we went to the Shahid Minar, I heard the history of how thousands of students of various universities, colleges and schools had given their life for their language. Hence, 21st of February is treated as International Language Day.

 

In the weekend we went to Cox Bazaar and the longest white sand beach in the world. I collected a lot of seashells. It is such a clean beach.  I had a lot of fun there. We also visited the Dhakeshwari Temple. The capital of Bangladesh is Dhaka and this name has been derived from the temple mentioned earlier.

I love spending my holidays in Bangladesh!!!

With sprinkles of snow everywhere, Yes, it was all snow clad.   Everything was white, above and on the ground With not much people moving around. The feel was like a beautiful heaven, While walking around with uncle Ken. What a winter wonderland it was Waiting for Christmas gifts from Santa Claus.
