A Nordic Club kind of day

Our original plan today was to go to New Market- supposed to be a huge market with everything imaginable to be found in Dhaka. But, Steven got a bad cold a few days ago and did not have energy for that kind of event. Instead we decided to take a full day by the pool side at the very most "bubble" kind of place ; Nordic Club. As visitors of members and residents of Sweden we paid 600 taka (55 kr) (8 dollars) each which gave us full access to all it's facilities.
So... We sat in a sun chair all day. I took a swim and did some laps. It was nice to move and do some excercise as we do not move very much physically on a daily basis here. Mostly we sit in the car... stuck in traffic. We take short walks in and out of places. In the afternoon we met Sabbi and her two visiting cousins from Stockholm. Afterwards we went home and ordered food. I am now getting Steven's cold... which is very unfortunate with so little time left, but what can you do? However, I prefer having a cold to having stomach problems from food or water.
Many Nordic people at the Club who are hanging out, sun bathing, swimming, eating, working, playing tennis, reading and so on. I can understand the need of a place like this with all the chaos and intensity outside of it's doors and walls.
Now it's soon time for bed as we have a big day tomorrow; we will go to Old Dhaka, New Market and then we are invited to lunch at Sabbi's grandmother :)
