Farmers markets, Blue Hole swims, beach volleyball, and bonfires—the Haven Church IMPACT team’s cultural day in Abaco had it all! Get a peek into their incredible experiences with Erin and Nancy’s recap.
The morning BUMP was iced lattes, guava rolls, fresh vegetables, conch fritters, jalapeno cheese bread, cookies and cinnamon cream cheese donuts from the local farmers market….yum!
Ready, get SET, jump! A wooded, narrow, bumpy two-track road led the group to a foot path which opened to a 400+ foot deep fresh water swimming hole – officially known as the Blue Hole. Friendly swimming races ensued along with cannonballs, assorted dives, floating in tubes, and relaxing on the “shore.” This experience provided a refreshing respite after 3 hard days of work.
An appetite was worked up by all – satisfied by Bahamian cuisine at Pete’s Pub. “Island Time” was also included, but the wait was worth it…..yum, yum!
“I got it!” It’s mine!” “Out!” SPIKE!! Beach volleyball at Driftwood Farm was the perfect ending to a fulfilling day. Friendships deepened over a delicious fried chicken dinner, “nukem” volleyball, ice cream and a roaring bonfire.
The beauty of God’s creation in Abaco will remain forever in our hearts.
