We attended prayer time and devotions this morning and then I did a few things in the office while Larry did some computer work and studied the transmitter specs. While at the office, a man from customs arrived to have some papers signed. He mentioned his son attends a youth outreach that meets in one of the studios TWR no longer needs. That youth group has changed the hearts of severak young people and their families. One such person was a young man who spent his time robbing tourists. He had some issues with his father and through this outreach, came to know his Heavenly Father and then amends were made with his earthly father.
After taking Larry to the site, I went to the store and bought a few things. I had forgotten my bags, so picked up a box in the store for my purchases. Then I decided that it was time to do a load of laundry and clean house a bit. The washing machine is much like a simple one in the States. It just drains out on the ground, although there is a big plastic tub to catch the water. Unfortunately the tub has a drain hole in it but no plug. It is good here, where they distill all the water from the sea, to be as conservative as possible with water. The tub is to be used to catch the water for recycling. We used to use it to wash another load or to water the plants. Usually the soapy water on the plants, the rinse for the second load. It helped quite a bit with the water bill. So now I need to see if I can get another tub, or at least make the water not run right by the house. I used the ‘green’ dryer outside… the wind and sun. The gas dryer doesn’t work, but right now there is enough wind to dry things fairly quickly.While my clothes were washing, I swept the floor and decided to work on an area where the ceramic tiles are discolored. I did manage to lighten the discoloration quite a bit, but will keep working on it while I am here. I took a before picture so I could compare the progress. I also damp mopped the house. They have a very big and heavy rag mop. I can’t squeeze it very well. I think I should have packed my steam mop!
I also tried to clean a couple of screens by brushing them and covered myself with salty dust. I thought it would help the outlook and air flow.. Then I walked around the yard
and took a few pictures of the plants around the house and a picture of a very big blue head lizard.I went to pick Larry up at the transmitter site and whizzed right by my turn. Amazing how fast 25mph seems here! I then
took a different route and did not get lost.We came home and had nasi goering, that I made, for dinner and then went for our evening swim. Larry took a few pictures of the sun that daily drops into the sea.
