Playing at Lalbagh Gardens

The first two pictures show kids playing soccer (football) in a field that has not been mowed. I have seen no public soccer fields laid out for kids to use. I watched these kids kick the ball through the tall grass. The length of grass can be gauged by looking at their feet. It is hard to kick a ball smoothly and accurately under these conditions. But you don't miss what you never had.




There is not a lot of public money available for park amenities. Here kids make do with the natural slipperiness of this 3 billion year old rock formation. They were having as much fun as kids on a playground slide in the U.S.
