This morning I attended the monthly men’s breakfast at the international Bible Church with Marco Rienstra.  We had scrambled eggs with peppers, etc, potato patties, bacon and pancakes that were prepared by David Peterson.  The breakfast was followed by a thought provoking Bible study on Sola Scriptura contrasting general revelation of God (Psalm 19 and Romans 1:19-20) with the special revelation of God in His Word.

Virginia went out to breakfast at Illys with Vera Reinstra and had cappuccino and a bagel.  The cappuccino also comes with a tiny ice cream cone attached (and dripping in the heat!).

I took a two hour nap around midday, while Virginia did some reading.

 

 

 

We then shopped in the afternoon for food at Bonaire Warehouse Supermarket.  They have quite a large selection of food from the U.S. and Holland.  The Holland brands are typically cheaper (only about 50 to 100% higher than in Indiana).  This is OK as long as you can read Dutch or the pictures on the packages are recognizable!  If instructions are needed to prepare the food, that becomes another factor in what to buy.

Just before sunset, we took a long walk along the road going north.  There was an old road that continued along the shore line, but in recent years a detour was made to make room of a new upper class housing development.  We walked along the ‘closed’ old road, which is now becoming overgrown with thorn bushes.  In places we could only walk single file.

 

 

 

 

There was also a rugged path down to the beach, where we could observe the sun setting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After dark, one of the neighbors set off some fireworks for our listening pleasure!  High today was in the mid 80sF so we were again able to sleep comfortably with the ceiling fan on high speed.
