VBS Day 5

Susan and I ran into Tim at the beach for sunrise this morning. Not quite the colors of a Pacific Sunset, but pretty nice just the same. Here’s a reflection off the beach just after daybreak.

The MK siblings are pretty inseparable. Here’s brothers Noah and Levi sharing one chair and Jono and Aaron sharing the next chair. Sisters Elisa and Michaja two rows back are another inseparable pair.
The Junior High and High School kids did the object lesson today on right and wrong. It was pretty comical, and kept the younger kids engaged.
We had low tide at lunch, so several of us ventured out to the tide pools to check out the sea life.
Here’s a good size sea clam. It's a marine sanctuary, so all the sea life is protected. With all the eel we saw in the water, swimming in the ocean didn’t seem as attractive.
Recreation in the afternoon included the normal men’s water polo, but also included the UTB women also competing in water polo.
After water polo, half our team ventured into the village with their guides/trinket salespeople. Here’s Mary Ann supporting the economy by purchasing candy to give to the children.
They got to see the local bar in action. Susan should have gone with them. Later in the evening at the hotel bar, she asked for palm wine, and had the bartender in stitches – while it is the local alcoholic beverage of choice, no respectable bar serves it – it’s sort of like walking into a southern bar and ordering moonshine.
