Recreation

Dear Family and Friends,

While I have a few minutes before lunch, I thought I'd talk a bit about our recreational life here in the DR. Most evenings, Alison Veurink and Karen Blaauw organize mixer games which have been a lot of fun. One evening, Hannah Lagerwey was in the midst of building her "name game" empire when Jeff, with only 5 on his team, recalled that Hannah's name was "Santa Claus" and he succeeded in a coup. Hannah's team were unable to recall that Jeff was "John Travolta".

Alison Veurink is the current Queen of Dutch Blitz with a high score of 27 in one round!!! Go Alison. Rachel Veurink is the current Password champ gaining victory with 2 different partners - Heino once, and her father, Dave, a second time. Clearly, the Veurinks dominate when it comes to games!

Heino is quickly becoming known as the quirky, loud, shall I say "obnoxious" game player. All you who have played games with Heino know what I am talking about. Enough said.

Everyone continues to get along great. It's refreshing to be away from the television and enjoy one another's company during the evenings.

Until next time,

Karen
