Mission office windows

Getting ready for the new President.  Decided to wash all the windows in the office.

These windows go from the ceiling to the floor.  We are getting the carpet cleaned too. (Thats why the chairs are on the tables). This is just the conference room and kitchen.

This is the outside of the building.  All these windows to the door are ours.

Hilversum cereal wall

We did apartment inspection and found this unique wall.  The whole wall was different cereal boxes the Elders had eaten.  Some were poking out and some in.  Now they are going around the corner.

Flags & bags

When they pass their exams here they put out the flag and hang their backpacks on them.

Sheep

Coming home from home teaching and right in the middle of the city were alot of sheep.

Fruit pizza

I was craving fruit pizza and decided to make it for the office.  I bought all the ingredients and found out , I didn't have a pizza pan.  I found these two quiche pans and made it work. 

Moores

We had dinner with the Moores.  They are from Canada and he is in the Bishopric in the Wassenaar Ward.  It was like going to Rodizios.  They had barbecued every kind of meat.  It was delicious. The Zoetermeer Elders were there also.  I had left my coat there so we went back.  The kids were already in bed but came downstairs for a picture.  They also gave me 2 giant bags of Belgium chocolate chips.

Spijkenisse Senior Outing

We had a great meeting hearing the testimonies of our new senior couple the Caldwells, and from those couples going home in July, the Romigs and the Johnsons and of course President and Sister Robinson.  We also heard from Pres. Boom who is one of the Area Seventies serving in Europe. Sister and Elder Butler,Pres. and Sister Robinson, Sister and Pres. Boom, Elder and Sister Kleyn.

If you look real close,  they are wind surfing.  There were tons of them.

We went to the Deltapark, Neeltje Jans.  This is an artificial island that was constructed in the 1960s.  In 1953 they had a huge storm that flooded the Netherlands.  The water reached a record height of 4.5 meters above sea level.  Most of Holland is below sea level.  1800 people died and 72,000 had to be evacuated.  Here is where they built the storm surge barriers and dikes to protect the low lying areas. They had a seal show here but we got there too late.

They even had a water park.  Notice we all have on out coats and the kids here are running thru the water in their swimsuits.

We took a boat ride around the Delta Works.  Elder Robison and Sister and Elder Johnson.
