Tuesday Walt and I were warned don't go
out of the hotel so we did. We couldn't find a place to eat that
served somewhat normal breakfast food so we went back to the hotel to
eat.
Constantly seeing new things. We saw a
man and boy walking around with clear plastic bags and inside were
fish, another had a large bucket full. They were trying to sell
them. If I heard correctly there is no welfare so people do what
they can to make money. Ruth scolded me for giving money to the
beggars and used the old proverb about teaching a man to fish not
giving him the fish. She only gives sometimes to the handicapped.
Their government frowns on people who give money. I told Ruth if I
lived here I may become one of the beggars because I would give all
my money away to help the beggars.
At noon we went to the best seafood
place in town Alavar's. But again this seafood is real seafood, not
fish n chips or processed food. We ordered seafood bilao and Walt
had shrimp with the best juice in the world , Alavar's juice and
Zamboanga white.
Then we headed to her sister's house. Ruth's whole family except for
Joshua’s wife and children. Introduced Walt and made final
plans for the blessing. Jun showed us around Ebenezer, the church
grounds and the beach. Little crabs everywhere. We didn't stay to
long. We went back to the hotel and ate at Abalones again.
