Contrasts

On a recent Sunday as we were walking home from (yet another) latte outing, this happened. We do live in a place of contrasts.

The women are probably Burmese and are working on a construction site near our house. They and their families will live in corrugated metal lean-to's at the edge of the job site until the work ends. It occurred to me that our stroller costs the equivalent of about two month's wages.

Despite the contrast, they stopped Amnat to say (you guessed it) - fat baby, white skin, big nose. Praise all around.
